What you've described is a re-ordering of the detected drives *only* when the USB device is connected. This is what a PC BIOS does when it scans the boot-device list.
If the printer or other connected USB device has a storage-card adapter it may cause the PC BIOS to detect a drive. If the USB devices don't have storage-card capabilities it could be the PC BIOS has a bug and is mis-detecting. It is worth upgrading the PC BIOS if a newer one is available and won't break anything else. Please give the PC make, model, and BIOS revision, and the model # of the device(s) attached when this happens. -- Hibernate breaks when booting with USB device attached (/dev/sda* changes to /dev/sdb*) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/136214 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
