Bug #2151
Updated by liweitianux over 5 years ago
Steps for reproduce: - Download the last usb image from the mirrors. - dd to your usb stick. - Power off your computer. - Conect two usb sticks to your computer. The first with the installer of DragonFly. The seconds will be the destination of your installation. - Boot the installer. - Install DragonFly in your second usb stick. Use all the disk and hammer. - Power off your computer. - Disconnect the first usb stick. - Power on your computer. - Boot your usb stick. - DragonFly doesn't find your root partition. The old (usb) disk "da9x" is "da8x" now. Here exists two problems: - In /etc/fstab the partitions point to "da9x". - The same for /boot/loader.conf. The installation in usb disks is useless. With this problem the user can't use his or her usb disk in other computers with other order of usb disks. Also this is very bad for IT departments. I think the better solution is the support for UUID. The same problem for other user: - http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/mailarchive/users/2011-09/msg00024.html
