They are not used by default for filesystems on LVM, because LVM volume names are already unique identifiers and fs UUIDs are *not* due to snapshotting. So the patch here may or may not be appropriate to apply, but in no case should you be referencing LVM volumes by UUID on /etc/fstab. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
