2) How do you handle swap partitions?

However, uuid should work. See mine - by label:
nimrodel:~ # l /dev/disk/by-label/ | grep -i swap lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Mar 25 04:28 160_swap -> ../../hdd7 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Mar 25 04:28 320_swap -> ../../hda5
See my totally missing by-label:
# ls /dev/disk by-id by-path by-uuid
Possibly caused by me never having labeled these drives?
They don't label themselves. ;-) You can have YaST set labels during installation, or later.
Did you manually label them 160_swap and 320_swap. With what tool. I thought labels were associated with filesystems.
I only use ext2/3, so both e2label and tune2fs -L work for me for regular partitions, usually the latter, when I change -i & -c to 0.
Is there a swap partition labeler?
