I have no problem making UUID the default I suppose but the # kopt line is suppose to be edited by humans and should not be overwritten (at least this is what the comments in the file suggest).
It is interesting to note that if one has the line like: # kopt=root=UUID=d401f1eb-681d-41f8-bf63-62d8da629044 ro and changes it by hand to to # kopt=root=UUID=abcd ro That is, I make something up, then update-grub will assume the entry DOES NOT need to be updated. At the very least, make update-grub update the entry EVERYTIME. Unless I put in the old name, i.e., # kopt=root=/dev/sda6 ro then it gets overwritten with the UUID stuff. It is interesting to note that this behaviour is likely due to: As noted above, the # kopt entry should be edited only by humans and its value should be used in the various kernel sections below...... Try it and you will see I am correct. -- edgy update-grub destroys kopt https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/62195 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
