We can not rename USB block device names, as it would break all current systems that have been working just fine for the past 20+ years with USB disks on Linux. To do so is crazy and not how Linux development works at all. If we were to do this, there would be hundreds of thousands of mad users and broken systems, not something that you should be asking to have happen. If you want persistent disk names, use /dev/disk/by-*/ symlinks, that is what they are there for, and have been there for 15+ years. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.
