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.

  • 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.

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

  • @Noob To get the grub.cfg generated automatically you need to edit the 10_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

  • @Noob To get the grub.cfg generated automatically you need to edit the 10_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 ?
