Bug Description
i reboot very infrequently but when i do it seems that swap changes its uuid...
since swap is not activated the system will at some point grind to a halt when i open too many apps...a normal user would think ubuntu had crashed or is impossibly slow...
so i do
root@bigboy:~# swapon -a
swapon: cannot stat /dev/disk/
root@bigboy:~# swapon /dev/hda4
i can always do swapon by /dev/hda4 but when i now look at /dev/disk/by-uuid:
root@bigboy:~# ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/
3890B82E90B7F10C 6ee41388-
48764247-
there is now ny partition with the uuid which was /dev/hda4 before i rebooted...
is it me (ie. have i changed something in my setup) or is this happening to everybody?
thanks
sorry - this is edgy...and ive been with edgy since knot 1...have there been any reasons since then why the uuid should have changed?
