Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: partman-base
I installed Ubuntu from a Maverick pre-release, I believe.
The top of my /etc/fstab reads:
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
# devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
Here's the output of 'blkid -o value -s UUID' on my system:
# blkid -o value -s UUID
41fe5a06-b480-4a01-9757-e8da80c7d2c9
0a79a7ec-c4af-44a2-b8c0-8556955bdc8f
3030764d-d0a9-4bb9-9b15-e3382e9fbba0
16403f4a-d1b4-4336-8f22-1321f5fdeade
6dcbfd60-d415-4f3b-bd50-da5f24aee012
7b2f25c7-c437-4535-868c-f7eec107285c
f66ea478-cf99-4101-8666-582440c79738
That gives no information about which partitions correspond to which
UUIDs!
The command that is more useful is 'blkid -o full -s UUID'
# blkid -o full -s UUID
/dev/sda1: UUID="41fe5a06-b480-4a01-9757-e8da80c7d2c9"
