If you use /dev/disk/by-label/SOMETHING paths in fstab instead of LABEL=SOMETHING you might not need to do any workarounds for busybox (and it's a much cleaner solution IMHO). It would also be nice to use the other variants of /dev/disk/by-*/ when no label has been specified for the device (which would give persistent device names in other situations as well). -- David Härdeman -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
