andrewthomas thanks for your suggestion, i'll never use device names as Label. But I don't really get what you said about using root=LABEL in referring devices in grub. Do you mean I add this line to menu.lst "/mount_point=UUID"?
In checking other forums with similar subject they just use UUID, and maybe I'll also stop worrying about this and just live with using UUID and Label in managing multiple disks.
