# NOTE: Even though we list ext4 as the type here, it will work with ext2/ext3
# filesystems. This just tells the kernel to use the ext4 driver.
#
-# NOTE: You can use full paths to devices like /dev/sda3, but nowadays it is
-# recommended to set labels in the filesystem and mount via that. All
-# modern Linux filesystems should support this functionality. If your
-# boot partition is /dev/sda1 and is ext4, you can set the label of it
-# to "boot" by running:
-# # e2label /dev/sda1 boot
-# Then the LABEL example below will work for you.
+# NOTE: You can use full paths to devices like /dev/sda3, but it is often
+# more reliable to use filesystem labels or UUIDs. See your filesystem
+# documentation for details on setting a label. To obtain the UUID, use
+# the blkid(8) command.

#LABEL=boot /boot ext4 noauto,noatime 1 2
-#LABEL=root / ext4 noatime 0 1
+#UUID=58e72203-57d1-4497-81ad-97655bd56494 / ext4
noatime 0 1
#LABEL=swap none swap sw 0 0
#/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro 0 0
