I mentioned it because I recently installed and set up servers with ubuntu
10.04 and fedora 14, while I was waiting for C6. Using the UUID is the
default now.

I also found it works fine in C5.5 - you just substitute the UUID for the
/dev and format the fstab line properly.

However I use raid cards, and I don't know if mdadm can work with the UUID
in centos. Sorry if it doesn't...
