> Then we rely only on UUIDs. This is exactly what I suggested we should avoid. On OpenFirmware we scan every device alias, %80 of them point to non-existing devices. The aliases are just an enumeration of the set of devices that could be behind a controller, not what has actually been detected by the firmware or anything like that. So every scan for a UUID can eat up an enormous amount of time, poking devices that simply are not there. _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
