Comment 4 for bug 153027

You are right about Ubuntu using the UUIDs to mount by default. What happened in my case is that the drive was installed later (after Ubuntu was already installed)... so i simply formatted it (ext3) and mounted it myself, using the /dev/sdXn style partition reference.

i was thinking, if /etc/fstab is changed to the /dev/evms/sdXn format, it will no longer work in the previous version of the kernel (feisty) ... so one of the systems (feisty or gutsy) will be broken anyway ... it seems to me that ideally the package should alarm at boot time when it sees an entry in /etc/fstab with an invalid device, that EVMS took over. And maybe have fstab changed automatically to the disk UUIDs fstab format ...

ideas?
thx :)
