(Get the code!)
You've just guaranteed that dual boot Ubuntu's will fail to boot as is without user intervention.
With a new UUID, and Install putting every UUID's it can find in fstab, boot's automatic fsck is guaranteed to fail when booting the second image.
How do you propose to fix the problem you've created?
You've got choices like:
1. Install not putting the UUID's it doesn't need into fstab.
2. fstab not causing a boot failure when it can't find a UUID that's listed in fstab.
3. At least put a message on boot that says how the user is supposed to get by the failure, i.e. Ubuntu development doesn't want to fix the problem, dump it onto the user.
Thanks, Jerry
p.s this is a triple boot, just installed a Gutsy Tribe 6 now I'll boot the other two images to fix their fstab's.
