Hi Michael, Hi Steffen,
maybe an reason: Before installing 12.2 I have cloned my productive system on /dev/sda to a new disk.
IMHO this is fine. As fstab is for sysv init, not for bootloader and you adjusted your menu.lst correctly. One potential problem is that if you don't adjust sda1's device.map correctly will lead to device not found (as you clone your disk to the other, the by-id name differs) when reinstalling bootloader, but this is not the issue we are in discuss.
I've edited /etc/fstab not using /dev/disk/by-id/.. because I do not like it.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /dev/sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/sda1 / ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 1 /dev/sda3 /home ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 2 /dev/sda5 /v1 ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 2 /dev/sda6 /v2 ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 2
My (sda1) /etc/fstab looks like this: proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0 debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0 usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-SanDisk_SDSSDP064G_121977404574-part2 /ssd ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 2 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
My (sda1) boot/grub/device.map looks like this:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> (hd2) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-SanDisk_SDSSDP064G_121977404574 (hd1) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST31000528AS_5VP2Y163 (hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST500DM002-1BD142_W2AFJ83S
Better make sure /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST500DM002-1BD142_W2AFJ83S exists or use /dev/sda or new disk's by-id device name. You may encounter bootloader installation fail when, for eg, grub package updates if the information incorrect here.
