We do mention that as a factor in http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/postlfs/initramfs.html Either label of uuid works fine for partitions other than /, even without an intiramfs. Generally though, we don't go into all the different methods that can be used for things like fstab. That's where the man pages are useful. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
