Hi there, I use Ubuntu 18.04. When I boot from GRUB command line, is there a way to determine what the root mounting point will be, before booting?
i.e., say I know that my partition that has Ubuntu is (hd0,gpt4). so then I do: set root=(hd0,gpt4) and then I happen to know that the correct root mounting point is /dev/nvme0n1p4 so then I know to do: linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/nvme0n1p4 and then i do initrd /initrd.img and boot but like what if i don't know ahead of time that /dev/nvme0n1p4 is what I need? (this problem comes up when: say i'm booting from a backup external disk, and i don't know whether it will be /dev/sdb2 or whatever.... etc..)
