I see many people suggested UUIDs and other funny long names. What I use instead: LVM. This way you get to name the "disks" and "partitions" with meaningful names which only change when you decide to change them.

It's turned into quite an issue for me since Debian stopped assigning disk names in a predictable way. -- Best nightdreams.
