As to device naming, use LABEL= to fix that. SCSI device naming on Linux stinks.
Quick question regarding the naming issue (and sorry for hijacking this thread). My CentOS 4.5 desktop system has two SATA drives: the boot drive is /dev/hda1 and the second drive is /dev/sda1.
/dev/hda is being controlled by a controller that mimics an IDE drive and is being accessed through the kernel's ide layer. /dev/sda is being controlled by a libata-supported controller and is being accessed through the kernel's scsi stack with libata.
All IDE and ATA drives under later kernels will be libata supported, and will show up as /dev/sdx drives. -- Lamar Owen Chief Information Officer Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute 1 PARI Drive Rosman, NC 28772 828-862-5554 www.pari.edu
