Hi,
I recently experienced a filesystem issue that forced
me to use the rescue system and I saw two issues regarding
mounting filesystems that seemed bad to them
1) swap space is mounted by UUID
That is problematic. If your swap space is corrupted you
use mkswap. There practically is no other option.
Doing so, however, you change the UUID and your system
comes up without swap pretty much without warning.
That is really nasty if you need to do S4 later on.
It seems to me that swap should be mounted by device name.
2) systemd while coming up will tell you that a certain
UUID is unavailable and fails to boot.
That message is more less useless. You pretty much
won't find the partition by UUID after you reboot
into the rescue system because unless you have superhuman
memory or take a photograph you will not have the UUID
any more. And even if you had it, you won't find it
for the same reason systemd failed to find it.
A useful message would tell me where the filesystem
was to be mounted at.
Regards
Oliver
