During the install, the usb stick was considered /dev/sda, while the SATA harddrive was /dev/sdb. Everything worked fine until the first boot, in which the usb stick was removed, and the SATA hard drive became /dev/sda, which grub did not expect. Also the fstab was referring to /dev/sdb.
I ran into this too (in october 2008, using an USB disk containing a netboot initrd.gz of lenny/testing). I edit /etc/fstab & Grub to use UDEV by Label. Magnus Holmgren <[email protected]> said:
The installer [& grub] can use LABEL or UUID by default to identify partitions.
I totally agree. Maybe GRUB 2 will help to do this ? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
