Lennart Poettering	73b80ec2d9	gpt-auto-generator: automatically find the root disk of the system ... When run in an initrd and no root= argument is set (or is set to root=gpt-auto) we will automatically look for the root partition on the same disk the EFI ESP is located on. Since we look for swap, /home and /srv on the disk the root partition is located on, we hence have a fully discoverable chain: Firmware discovers the EFI ESP partition → the initrd discovers the root partition → the host OS discovers swap, /home, and /srv. Note that this requires an EFI boot loader that sets the LoaderDevicePartUUID EFI variable, such as Gummiboot.	2014-03-07 04:31:26 +01:00
