I'm a bit curious about something, so maybe someone can help me understand: Why are people bothering with GPT labels (or in some cases, glabels) when AHCI (whether it be ataahci.ko or ahci.ko) is in use? Under what circumstance would the device name change dynamically in this situation? I've never witnessed this happening with AHCI, at least on Intel systems, and I've hot-swapped hard disks many times over. -- | Jeremy Chadwick j...@parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
