Don't you mean a filesystem or partition label ?
"Disklabel" is a synonym for "partition table".

I don't know about "recommended" but could you put your own menu

Hi.
I noticed that for some time, sshd is being started in a separate
filesystem namespace. As a consequence, mounts done from a SSH shell are
not visible from the main system, and that disrupts my use habits.

Hi Sven,
Thanks for that suggestion.
I've quickly tried this on a test VM and indeed crossgrading seems to work much
better in debian 9 compared to debian 7.
Thanks,

not sure about this; have you tried to set

What is the recommended method for preventing grub from using UUIDs to
