Oh, it's there, you just have to mount it yourself.  That's why I suggested 
looking to see what the current /dev/disk/by-id/... showed.  You could also 
look at /proc/partitions and /proc/dasd/devices.

I'm not at all sure why you guys wound up with /dev/disk/by-id values in 
/etc/fstab.  I've done probably a hundred test installs of SLES10, and I always 
wind up with /dev/dasda1 and such in my fstab.
