A new kernel (2.6.20-16.29) reverting the piix changes was released: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-470-1 on 08 June 2007. Additionally a new wiki page describing how references to partitions should be UUIDs/labels has recently appeared: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsingUUID .
While not every query mention in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux- source-2.6.20/+bug/117314/comments/67 , https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel- discuss/2007-June/001059.html and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives /ubuntu-devel-discuss/2007-June/001063.html has been answered (e.g. UsingUUID doesn't address /boot/grub/device.map or the swap formatting problem ...), I'm only going to explicitly reask one set of questions. Martin Pitt basically said the answer to this depends on the kernel folks: What happens to the current renaming bugs? Are they just closed? Do we just open a new bug if/when another "great renaming" happens? Is it worth trying to fix the PATA bugs being masked on SATA machines? Do we just close those bugs too? -- latest kernel(2.6.20-16.28) update gives boot problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117314 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
