Hi, I was wondering if support for root=label= is coming to grub anytime soon? I found someone who wrote a patch that did this back in 2004 (http://osdir.com/ml/boot-loaders.grub.bugs/2004-02/msg00105.html). I really need a way to do root=label WITHOUT an initrd. I have a portable USB hard drive that I boot on a variety of systems. Sometimes root is sda, sometimes sdb, or even sdf. Manually editing the root=line takes time, and more time is spent on figuring out where root is. I am using grub 0.97 and would be willing to switch to grub 2 if it will help me. I did try root=LABEL=WD320G in my menu.lst and it didn't work, (I checked the label of the hard drive it is WD320G).
