Any idea how to do a udev rule like that? Before you start udev, in the initramfs init script, you'd do something like: if [ "${root#LABEL=}" != "$root" ]; then l=${root#LABEL=} cat > /etc/udev/rules.d/99-rootfs.rules << EOF ENV{ID_FS_USAGE}=="filesystem|other", ENV{ID_FS_LABEL_ENC}=="$l", SYMLINK+="root" EOF fi Then, you'd just wait for /dev/root to show up, rather than a particular device.
