Naw. I have 3 drives in this box with 6 or so partitions. There's a reason we still have pen and paper.

Partitions have UUIDs? *has no clue what that means*
Why would you need to memorize it? :P

Yep, and you can check them out with the command 'blkid'. It's a unique, universal identifier for each device/partition.
And no, I haven't and have no reason too. With 3 drives and ~8 partitions, I don't want to anyways.

To many partitions, that's why I use copy and paste.

no... too many disks, too long a number, plus you can regenerate pretty easy.

Mine has a '4', a '5', and an 'e' in it.
That's as far as I care to bother.

Just to clearify, as an experiment a few weeks ago, i wiped my grub list and have been loading my operating systems using memory alone, i can now type my entire bootup script thingy in less than 30 seconds, and no there is no need for doing this. There is absolutely no need whatsoever, i just wanted to see if anybody but me did it, or if not, are willing to take the chalenge.

I just use the auto option for everything mount-related. It has worked for me so far.
