UUID is an UNIQUE identifier by definition, don't you think so? Hence, if you re-format partition it MUST change or UUID will make no sense. That's how it works - by design. Reformatting created DIFFERENT, new unique filesystem. Hence, UUID should get changed as well.
But I have to admit that menu.lst probably should be re-generated with new UUID by installer in such cases and this still could be a bug if installer does not generated boot strings correctly. -- jaunty install: formatting root partition changes uuid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/377613 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
