No UUIDs or labels in those. So in context of anyone needing help being instructed, the very first result is consternation. Other rescue tools often have similar limitations
But gparted sees and creates labels. And in the context of having an external disk booted over eSATA or USB, it works :-)
Reads labels only if labels present, and runs only if its on an available filesystem.
They are present. All my partitions are labelled :-p
Otherwise, use UUIDs.
I was referring to people other than Carlos E. R. needing help with or trying to use rescue modes provided through various rescue sources. Real humans can't be expected to work with UUIDs (or have existing filesystem labels). UUIDs are for software like grub, systemd and kernel, not people. -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.
