Hello,
I am using a program for automatic creation of a harddisk partitioning
from a configuration file. That file contains device names like
/dev/sda1 etc. for naming the partitions. After the partitioning has
been completed, I want to create an appropriate fstab from the
configuration file and during that step, want to convert partition
device name entries to entries in the form UUID=... For that, I am using
udevadm info --query=symlink --name="$device"
where $device is the respective partition. Unfortunaly, the problem
occurs that often - though partitioning was completed and filesystems
created - links in /dev/disk/by-uuid/ are not yet available when
udevadm is run, so that udevadm returns nothing. So, my question is: Is
it possible to force the device node links to have been created before
calling udevadm? Without long sleeps or sleep loops?
Regards
Christoph
