Moving to a new filesystem will change the UUID, but you're changing everything else anyway. (It may also be possible to specify the UUID when your format the filesystem. I'm not positive of that.) Remember, UUIDs are labels of the filesystem, not directly tied to the underlying partition. -- Matthew Walker HAM Call Sign: N7TOX Kydance Hosting & Consulting, Inc. - http://www.kydance.net/ PHP, Perl, and Web Development - Linux Server Administration /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
