You can label the filesystems on each of your partitions.  Then you
mount according to the label rather than by the device special file.

For years the order of SCSI disks was stable, but there was never any
particular guarantee that the order would be any particular way.  Then
a new release of the kernel appeared that reversed the order!  Since
then the best thing to do has been to label your partitions.
