About those /dev/sdXY names: I havent seen those in ages with my setups of openSuSE. Isnt this supposed to be the newer way to write device and storage names e.g. /dev/disk/by-id/...... and similar? Maybe dev/sdXY isnt supported any more everywhere in all parts of the scripts, update parts and so on? Good luck.
I used /dev/sdb6 and /dev/sdb7 in my OP for simplicity and brevity; the actual entries in /etc/fstab and the system log are /dev/disk/by-id/...-part6 and /dev/disk/by-id/...-part7. However, /etc/mtab does contain /dev/sdb6 and /dev/sdb7 instead. Is this unexpected (and if so, how do I change it)?
