fstab errors

[sickdude]

Ok guys i had a lot of trouble with my server lately, and i thought that it was the fault of old hard disks. But when i fresh installed today i found out something, something wierd.

I got some errors that had to do something with the uuid in my fstab, that ubuntu generates itself.



# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# /dev/hda2

As you can see i hased out the entrys with the uuid and replaced them with the standard thingies. This seems to do the trick but i was wondering if this is a bug or just a known error? And ofcourse im wondering if this is the right way to fix this?

I also had a problem with UUIDs. In my case, for some reason Ubuntu didn't generate the complete UUID for one of my drives and therefor couldn't mount it. I used the command sudo vol_id -u device to find out the correct UUID of my device, now everything works great. Donno if that helped, but there ya go :P
