I played with it some more and I cant seem to locate the UUID of the swap. Even with tree /dev/disk I did play around with some things and since I know the main disk that should be /dev/sda had the swap on /dev/sda5 when I put the second disk on the unit gets addressed as /dev/sdb I tried to mount /dev/sdb5 and even though it failed before I sent the reply below I now have it mounting fine after changing the fstab line for swap from /dev/sda5 to /dev/sdb5 for the swap.
I have to say things are much quicker now. On 6/24/07, David Fokkema <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

However, I think there was another thread (something to do with RAID) which also had this kind of problem. You could search the list for something like 'UUID'. Maybe someone knows the correct solution by heart?
