| phil42 | upgrading to 5.4.195 broke my drive assignments | 05:31 |
|---|---|---|
| phil42 | root drive was sda1 now it is sdf1 | 05:31 |
| phil42 | is there a way to restore previous behavior? | 05:32 |
| arraybolt3 | phil42: 5.4.195 of what? | 05:39 |
| arraybolt3 | kernel? | 05:39 |
| phil42 | yes, lubuntu 18.04 | 05:39 |
| arraybolt3 | hmm, so two things: | 05:40 |
| arraybolt3 | * The /dev/sdX assignments are unstable by definition in the Linux kernel. The fact that /dev/sda is now /dev/sdf may not be kernel-related, and if it is it's probably not something that's easily fixable since this is intended behavior. You should probably be using filesystem UUIDs instead, or perhaps filesystem labels. | 05:41 |
| arraybolt3 | * Lubuntu 18.04 is EOL, as is Ubuntu 18.04. You should probably consider installing Lubuntu 24.04 at your earliest convenience, and consider keeping the system from connecting to the Internet in the mean time for security reasons. | 05:41 |
| phil42 | on 2, i am using ubuntu pro | 05:42 |
| arraybolt3 | ah, ok, that should keep you from having security problems | 05:42 |
| arraybolt3 | still, Lubuntu 18.04 is EOL from Lubuntu's perspective, and Ubuntu Pro doesn't affect that (Lubuntu LTS releases are only supported by the Lubuntu team for three years). So while you are going to get updates, we can't really help with 18.04 anymore. | 05:43 |
| phil42 | on 1, i will keep that in mind while i am hoping for a way to restore previous behavior | 05:43 |
| arraybolt3 | If you're using 18.04 professionally, you can potentially get support from Canonical, but that probably would require having a paid Ubuntu Pro subscription (the free tier doesn't have support since support takes time and time is money). | 05:44 |
| phil42 | currently i have reverted to 5.4.193 | 05:45 |
| phil42 | and i am hoping for an update that fixes it | 05:46 |
| phil42 | worst case, i can work around it | 05:47 |
| phil42 | thanks for your help | 05:47 |
