Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
I just did an upgrade from an up-to-date 6.06.2 machine to 8.04 beta using do-release-upgrade -d. Everything actually went very smoothly until the reboot at the end. On the reboot the partitions all failed to mount because they were all listed in the fstab as /dev/hdX, whereas the new current standard is /dev/sdX. I manually updated the /etc/fstab and everything worked fine.
The update manager utility should try to update this or, if detected at launch, instruct the user to transition to labels/UUID perhaps.
