I'm sorry, but I don't understand the usage case here which blocks DUIDS, so let's see a better explanation or demonstration. When you have DUIDs in /etc/fstab, you can still use the disk partitions using the raw disk names. The partitions are obvious. Figuring out which disk it is, is really easy, lots of options to provide the translation. And as far as I know, all the tools have been adapted to accept DUID. > I think you could eliminate the DUID question for laptops. it's always > right there.
