Package: udev Version: 0.114-2 Severity: normal Entries in /dev/disk/by-id are prefixed with e.g. ata-* or scsi-* or usb-* depending on the bus to which a disk is connected. This makes it impossible to switch disks between busses (e.g. hook an ATA disk to usbserial and just make it work). I can use by-uuid for partitions holding filesystems, but swap partitions are not exposed by-uuid, so those cannot be used across different bus-systems.
Maybe udev could provide by-id links without the bus type in addition to the ones with the bus type to make migrations possible? -- Package-specific info: -- /etc/udev/rules.d/: /etc/udev/rules.d/:
