How do I enable UUID in Debian?

[Aniruddha <mailing_list@orange.nl>]

Hi,

Since my harddrive names keep changing after each reboot I have to set
UUID in grub to make sure I can boot. I've done this before in Gentoo
and I wonder how this works in Debian.

Do I have to install a special package? Which line do I have to add to
my menu.lst? I was thinking about something like this:

> title		Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.24-1-686
> root		(hd2,1)
> kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-1-686 root=UUID=dd4927a2-e1f4-4955-8aa7-76a11d8c3aca init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192  
> initrd		/boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-1-686


Is this correct? Thanks in advance!

Regards,
