I would like to know more about kernel parameters and in particular about the root parameter. I'm booting the kernel from usb pen and the root could change while the pen is plugged in different machines with different hardware. I was trying to find info about "how to make this unique". Does the kernel see only /dev/* ? There's no way to pass /dev/disk/*? Any help/links is apprecciated S. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
