Yep, but that's not an issue, since all the various device-naming schemes are supposed to be fixing this. Its a distinct problem; it needs to be solved even across cold-boots. (Didn't I ever tell you about the day I added a new disk controller to my system, and /dev/hda became /dev/hde and thus /home was mounted on /usr and /var as /etc and all hell broke loose? Owww, device naming is a serious issue for home users and even more so for enterprise-class users). --linas - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
