Package: coreutils Version: 8.13-3.2 Followup-For: Bug #656067 Debian/sid still listed my rootfs twice: as "rootfs" and as the UUID device. After setting GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true in /etc/default/grub (and running update-grub) the rootfs is still listed twice, but at least the long UUID entry is gone from df(1):
$ df -h [...] rootfs 4.0G 2.3G 1.5G 61% / /dev/sda1 4.0G 2.3G 1.5G 61% / Now /proc/cmdline also lists /dev/sda1 instead of the UUID name: $ cat /proc/cmdline BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-3-amd64 root=/dev/sda1 ro FWIW, on Fedora 17 (grub2) rootfs is listed twice too and without the long UUID name in df(1) output. Its kernel commandline _does_ specify root=UUID=... though. Then again, the boot process in Fedora seems to be very different from Debian's approach, I assume. openSUSE 12.1 (grub 0.97) lists rootfs twice and without the long UUID name in df(1) output, its kernel commandline does specify root=/dev/sdaN. Not sure about Windows though :-) Personally, listing rootfs twice is fine with me (especially since "df /" lists /dev/sdaN i.e. the real device name. But df(1) should not list the long UUID name, IMHO.
