There are numerous threads on how to fix the problem. Google should be your

I've searched a lot.  All the matches I'm getting are about tying
device names to specific *drives* or about solving boot-time issues.
We have a different problem.

We don't want to attach device names to drive IDs because,
periodically, we replace the disks, and we don't want to have to
change configuration every time we swap a drive.  And we don't have
any boot issues, because our system drive is on "parallel" ATA.

So, as before, any recipes would be appreciated.



I don't understand why using labels or ids wouldn't work. This probably means I don't get what it is that you're doing.

You say you don't want to tie "device names to drive IDs because" you sometimes "replace" the disks and you don't want to change the configuration.

Perhaps the problem is with the 'replace'? Just what does this mean, in your context?
