Hi All,
Want to disable UUID, and address hardware directly by device and
partition specs. Did it on my current system (~ 4 years ago), happy.
But see differences in files/contents in Trusty, and want your expert
advice, before I start changing things.
My knowledge is low. (Barely understand what I'm writing.) Can follow
clear simple step-by-step instructions, or grateful for links to same.
New system is Gigabyte MB, IntelCore i5 CPU, SATA HDD, dual booting on
64-bit Windoze plus just-released Trusty 64-bit Desktop.
Here's what I =would= do...
(1) Edit /etc/default/grub to remove the # at the start of line...
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID="true"
(2) Edit /usr/share/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib to comment out the 3 lines
starting...
if FS_UUID= (etc.)
... but that line doesn't exist in that file.
(3) Edit /etc/fstab and change very instance of UUID= (etc.) into the
corresponding drive and partition e.g. /dev/sda2
(4) Edit /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume and change UUID=RESUME=
(etc.) into the corresponding drive and partition e.g. /dev/sda2
(5) Run update-grub
(6) Then re-do all the above each time I do a kernel upgrade.
So please: Your advice, keeping to my original goal of
disabling/bypassing UUID. What am I forgetting? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks VERY much,
Carl Turney
Bayswater, Vic
