   There are three places where drives are normally identified, by device,   
   uuid, or label.  /etc/fstab, /boot/grub/menu.lst (Other locations, if   
   using grub2, or lilo), and in the in /boot/initrd-$(uname -r).img.   
      
   The initrd will only be concerned with /, swap, and if separate, /usr.   
      
   After making any changes to fstab, and menu.lst, for those filesystems,   
   the initrd should be updated by running "dracut -f".
