[PATCH UNTESTED] handle PARTUUID like UUID in genkernel
Created attachment 408488 [details, diff] [PATCH] Handle PARTUUID like UUID in genkernel-next This patch deals with genkernel-next while the patch in comment #1 addresses genkernel. I have only tested genkernel-next and can confirm it works. Both of them just add treating PARTUUID like UUID/LABEL since those cases forward to utilities that are already prepared to handle PARTUUID (2 out of 3, busybox findfs doesn't). I consider this change to be important since PARTUUID is the only thing that the kernel can actually read without help (of the 3 UUID/LABEL/PARTUUID). If something is wrong with the initramfs the kernel can try to mount root on its own, which is useful for people that don't use initramfs for anything critical (for me it only starts plymouth early on). Thanks for the patch. This should have been marked with the PATCH keyword. This will likely be merged when someone has a chance to review it and verify its behavior.
