Hi, Previously my hard disks were named hda, sda and sdb. Now they are named sda, sdb and sdc. Is this due to the UUID naming scheme used in /etc/fstab, /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume and /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules.
dmesg also shows this difference. Where does it originate?? It is somewhat confusing that the names have changed, /dev/hd? are ATA disks while /dev/sd? are SATA disks?? grub also gets confused: Setting up grub-pc (1.98+20100602-2) ... /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot stat `/dev/hda'. Generating grub.cfg ... ... What about the (now commented out) fstab entry giving the usblash the name sdc?? # /dev/sdc /mnt/usbflash vfat defaults,noauto,user 0 0 (haven't rebooted with this kernel latelty, don't know if the names are the same) /sbin/blkid in 2.6.32-2-686 /dev/hda1: LABEL="PRESARIO_RP" UUID="693D-1E3B" TYPE="vfat" /dev/hda3: UUID="aec662ba-91d0-4201-9bd1-a2e9028cbd41" TYPE="ext3" /dev/hda2: LABEL="PRESARIO" UUID="F0FC6717FC66D77E" TYPE="ntfs" /dev/hda5: UUID="40a9427a-a676-4ee7-9b8d-817d0be571d1" TYPE="ext3" /dev/hda6: UUID="fb87eb32-ec18-40c1-93fc-f63f60f39964" TYPE="ext3" /dev/hda7: UUID="e55cca07-9f99-4df7-bbb1-ac3235d8f600" TYPE="ext3" /dev/hda8: UUID="10b5957c-8391-4e2a-8d84-a4580990903a" TYPE="swap" /dev/sda1: UUID="3d8bdf26-796b-454b-a993-a664e6cdce63" TYPE="ext4" /dev/sdb1: UUID="4019FBEB70921E10" TYPE="ntfs" /dev/sdb2: UUID="49edfb8e-87db-447e-bea3-5a6b101ffdd8" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" /sbin/blkid in 2.6.32-5-686 /dev/sda1: LABEL="PRESARIO_RP" UUID="693D-1E3B" TYPE="vfat" /dev/sda3: UUID="aec662ba-91d0-4201-9bd1-a2e9028cbd41" TYPE="ext3" /dev/sda2: LABEL="PRESARIO" UUID="F0FC6717FC66D77E" TYPE="ntfs" /dev/sda5: UUID="40a9427a-a676-4ee7-9b8d-817d0be571d1" TYPE="ext3" /dev/sda6: UUID="fb87eb32-ec18-40c1-93fc-f63f60f39964" TYPE="ext3" /dev/sda7: UUID="e55cca07-9f99-4df7-bbb1-ac3235d8f600" TYPE="ext3" /dev/sda8: UUID="10b5957c-8391-4e2a-8d84-a4580990903a" TYPE="swap" /dev/sdb1: UUID="3d8bdf26-796b-454b-a993-a664e6cdce63" TYPE="ext4" /dev/sdc1: UUID="4019FBEB70921E10" TYPE="ntfs" /dev/sdc2: UUID="49edfb8e-87db-447e-bea3-5a6b101ffdd8" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
