Assume you are in the IT dept for some group and you are used to being able to re-use disks in different machines and to recover data from any disk by installing/mounting in any working machine. Now you find that any combination of disks from default fedora/RH/Centos installs won't boot... It is a problem.
So you boot with a LiveCD or some Rescue disk/media and fix it - use the device ID or relabel it. Isn't that the way to fix it? I don't understand the problem. Your assumed scenario is too vague. -Mauriat -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
