Why not just use ext2 labels, i think the whole point of labels is to avoid using device names, i.e., redhat default installs reference the labels instead of device names:
LABEL=/tmp /tmp ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/usr /usr ext3 defaults 1 2 is this what the discussion is about? In the above quote from /etc/fstab the kernel should be able to find the partitions even if the disks are rearranged (ex, should still find it even if /dev/hda reappears as /dev/hde when placed on a separate controller and so on) jondz > > Quoting Paolo Alexis Falcone ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): > > > slices (aside from kernel support)?
