Hello folks, how are you?
I'm facing an interesting problem and i think that the solution is
simple, but i'd like to discuss it on the list.
The MeeGo kernel doesn't use an initrd, to make it faster on boot, i
guess.
The problem i'm facing is that when i install the system on a netbook
with a usb disk the order of the disks change and i have problems
booting after the installation. If i change the boot loader
information and plug a pen-drive at boot time, the order change again.
Using UUID of disks solve the problem, but without a initrd on the
kernel the system cannot boot, since UUID mounting is available only
with initrd. (also LABEL mounting)
We use a custom kernel here and we use grub boot loader, but this
problem may happened on other boot loaders. There is one solution to
use GUID without initrd:

odd; our installer, bootloader and kernel configuration actually should
not allow this to happen....
can you reproduce this with the meego reference set of these ?
