Hi all,

While I've installed and played with a number of SLES10 images, today I
tried to clone one...

When I tried to boot it, I got:
Starting udevd
Creating devices
Loading dasd_mod
Loading dasd_eckd_mod

Waiting for device /dev/disk/by-id/ccw-HTC.14000000043418.7608.10-part1
to appear: ..............................not found -- exiting to /bin/sh
$


And of course the clone's DASD don't have the same id's as the master's.

This image (I don't recall doing anything special/different during the
install) has udev on and all the mounts (/etc/fstab) and zipl.conf all
are referencing "by-id".

The other SLES10 systems also have udev on but the mounts and zipl
reference the devices by the device name (i.e., /dev/dasda1).

I went back to the master, used Yast/Partitioner and changed it to mount
by device name, checked /etc/fstap, manually updated /etc/zipl.conf and
reran zipl.  Then recloned and all worked normally...

The question is...   Why this time did SLES10 default to "by id"
everywhere?   Was it something I inadvertently did?   Or??

Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Lee
