I really wouldn't worry about time-based uuid if you're grabbing them from uuidgen.

There are plenty of other things to worry about. - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
