For me, I have /dev/sda - gpt disk, /dev/sda1 is a EFI partition (FAT32), /dev/sda2, lvm2, /dev/sda3 is my root (root is suppose to be in lvm2, but currently broken since I have used systemd) my fstab: /dev/sda3 / auto defaults,discard 0 2 UUID=5E12-F7F1 /boot/ auto defaults,discard 0 2 /dev/md0.vg/data /mnt/data auto defaults 0 2 /dev/md0.vg/os.swap none swap pri=1 0 0 worst I ever have, are problems mounting /mnt/data and swap (lvm2). not sure why. Reboots fix it (or just mounting and continuing the boot). I guess the only partition I have that matches your usecase is /boot, and I use a UUID to mount it. -- Nathan Coulson (conathan) ------ Location: British Columbia, Canada Timezone: PST (-8) Webpage: http://www.nathancoulson.com -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
