It needs not be standard because it's used *inside* mdadm. Just because the OSF standardised their concept of UUIDs does not mean that suddenly, everyone who was using unique identifiers must rewrite their software, especially not if it works. In 8 years of mdadm maintenance, I have never heard of anyone making cosmetic edits to mdadm.conf like you are describing. I'll forward a well-tested patch upstream, but I will not engage in this conversation for longer. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@d.o> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems the micro$oft hoover: finally, a product that's supposed to suck!
