During install of f7test1, the hard drives were: /dev/sda /dev/sdb. Upon first boot, the names became swapped: /dev/sdb /dev/sda. Then I powered down, plugged in a new hard drive and rebooted. Everything changed again: /dev/sdc /dev/sdb with the new drive being /dev/sda. I can handle file systems: they have labels and UUIDs. I'd like a choice to deal with SATA and PATA interfaces using some kind of name that never changes, and preferably a name that relates to something I can see, such as: "the drive attached to cable 2 of the card in slot 5" or "the <Manufacturer> drive with serial number 1D2C3B4A", etc. How can I do this? Note that /var/log/messages no longer has any lines that identify drives like the old "found [or attached] SCSI device" messages in FC6. There are no longer any "partition check" messages or capacity messages, either. Presumably something in /proc/bus or /sys knows, but perhaps udev needs some help? [At install one drive was SATA (/dev/sda in FC6), the other was PATA (/dev/hdd in FC6; the FC6 /dev/hdc is a DVD that became /dev/scd0). The added drive was PATA (/dev/hda in FC6.)] -- -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
