Note that it's called GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID and not GRUB_DISABLE_UUID. We won't change that upstream. We only made it for the Linux kernel root= parameter because in some configurations root=UUID doestn't work and we can't reliable detect that. Our plans are to get totally rid of device.map and so the use of the old GRUB Legacy style `set root=(hd,xy)' in grub.cfg and only rely on search --fs-uuid. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer -- /etc/default/grub cannot disable use of UUID https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/499483 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
