Am actually kind of amazed at how well it has gone thusfar. Really puzzled, though, that while the drives are the same, and in the same physical locations, connectors, etc., but what was once sda1, my boot drive, is now sdb1, my boot drive. Which I discovered when I went to mount sdb1, which is 8 terabytes of photographs -- pretty much an entire career. Blood pressure rose until I got it figured out.
Persistent naming is always a dice role. I've got to the point of using the UUIDs from:
/dev/disk/by-uuid/ and /dev/disk/by-partuuid/ for fstab, etc...Never have issues from then on. On openSUSE, my laptops has 2 SSDs (both Linux, one Leap, one Tumbleweed) and you can use /dev/sda, /dev/sdb -- but if I log out from sdb, that drive disappears from the identified drives. There is never any confusion when using UUID - except trying to make sense of the hashes ...
But that's what a quick $ ls -al /dev/disk/by-uuid/ is for. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
