I got my feisty cds this morning. I installed feisty immediately and considering that one of the ubuntu devs on #ubuntu told me that feisty’s way of handling storage devices had changed, I immediately did:
shriphani@psp-laptop:~$ cat /etc/fstab # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 # /dev/sda3 UUID=1a97343a-e3ed-48e2-9db4-ea67228fb1aa / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 # /dev/sda2 UUID=68033b3d-f469-4a8b-8ade-c3a9984f5281 /boot ext2 defaults 0 2 # /dev/sda1 UUID=01107bb3-77bb-41c3-b271-6019bfa8ebb3 /home ext3 defaults 0 2 # /dev/sda4 UUID=da271254-066a-46f4-b1a0-75ba2c4b494f none swap sw 0 0 /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
What’s this !!. a UUID describing a device ? I was a bit confused. I also saw that my IDE drive (I have an acer travelmate 4500 laptop) was being recognised as SCSI. I immediately went to #ubuntu on freenode to figure out what was wrong. I was then given the link to this.
Wow! Surely a lot of thought going into that. So we will be dealing with just one subsystem from now on in Ubuntu land.

Hi Son,
Though I dont know how it works and dont have a clue on anyhting related to software, but yet I think you need encouragement and here is a big HUG from your Dad.
Keep it up.
