I installed my server with Debian 9 and Grub with a LABEL. In my /etc/fstab
I see My label as followed:
LABEL=root / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
But I see this in my /boot/grub/grub.cfg
linux /boot/vmlinuz-4.9.0-3-amd64 root=**/dev/sda1** ro single
How can I change the device to my Label ?

Possible duplicate of Pass root file system by label to linux kernel
– telcoM
yesterday
Seems to me it's about how to use the LABEL syntax to specify the root filesystem in the kernel command line. According to the/etc/fstab
example in the question, @Noob already knows how to use it there. The suggested duplicate includes examples and mentions the caveat that the LABEL syntax is really parsed by the initramfs, not the kernel itself; so it will only work if initramfs is being used.
– telcoM
yesterday
My /etc/fstab already contains a valid LABEL. But the label is not added to my /boot/grub/grub.cfg file. If I update my grub with update-grub it contains /dev/sda1 instead of LABEL=root.

debian grub2 grub boot-loader grub2-mkconfig
I installed my server with Debian 9 and Grub with a LABEL. In my /etc/fstab
I see My label as followed:
LABEL=root / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
But I see this in my /boot/grub/grub.cfg
linux /boot/vmlinuz-4.9.0-3-amd64 root=**/dev/sda1** ro single
How can I change the device to my Label ?

Possible duplicate of Pass root file system by label to linux kernel
– telcoM
yesterday
Seems to me it's about how to use the LABEL syntax to specify the root filesystem in the kernel command line. According to the/etc/fstab
example in the question, @Noob already knows how to use it there. The suggested duplicate includes examples and mentions the caveat that the LABEL syntax is really parsed by the initramfs, not the kernel itself; so it will only work if initramfs is being used.
– telcoM
yesterday
My /etc/fstab already contains a valid LABEL. But the label is not added to my /boot/grub/grub.cfg file. If I update my grub with update-grub it contains /dev/sda1 instead of LABEL=root.

Use blkid
or e2label /dev/sda1
to get the partition label then replace it in your fstab
, the root
option in grub.cfg
file is different, it is used to set the root file system.
Add the following lines to your /etc/defaut/grub
:
GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true
GRUB_ENABLE_LINUX_LABEL=true
Then edit the 2 lines in your /boot/grub/grub.cfg
as follows:
search --no-floppy --label root --set=root
linux /boot/vmlinuz-4.9.0-3-amd64 root=LABEL=root ro single
Debian: Labels
manpages: e2label
Added the grub.cfg as requested

@Noob To get thegrub.cfg
generated automatically you need to edit the10_linux
file and/usr/lib/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib
See here: techpatterns.com/forums/about1575.html and ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1530532

I know that I have to do that on that file. But I can not believe that I am the only one with this error and that this does not have a easy fix. There must be something a option to enable label right ?

Use blkid
or e2label /dev/sda1
to get the partition label then replace it in your fstab
, the root
option in grub.cfg
file is different, it is used to set the root file system.
Add the following lines to your /etc/defaut/grub
:
GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true
GRUB_ENABLE_LINUX_LABEL=true
Then edit the 2 lines in your /boot/grub/grub.cfg
as follows:
search --no-floppy --label root --set=root
linux /boot/vmlinuz-4.9.0-3-amd64 root=LABEL=root ro single
Debian: Labels
manpages: e2label

I know that I have to do that on that file. But I can not believe that I am the only one with this error and that this does not have a easy fix. There must be something a option to enable label right ?

Possible duplicate of Pass root file system by label to linux kernel
– telcoM
yesterday
Seems to me it's about how to use the LABEL syntax to specify the root filesystem in the kernel command line. According to the
/etc/fstab
example in the question, @Noob already knows how to use it there. The suggested duplicate includes examples and mentions the caveat that the LABEL syntax is really parsed by the initramfs, not the kernel itself; so it will only work if initramfs is being used.– telcoM
yesterday
My /etc/fstab already contains a valid LABEL. But the label is not added to my /boot/grub/grub.cfg file. If I update my grub with update-grub it contains /dev/sda1 instead of LABEL=root.
