Hi Trent, You edit those files you mention after each backup. I back up at least once a week, but only edit the files I mentioned when I upgrade a system or do a kernel upgrade -- less often. (Been running 10.4 so long haven't upgraded a kernel in a very long time.) Everything after the phrase "The MACs OTOH ..." is beyond my skill set. Cheers, Carl On 23/04/14 10:43, Trent W. Buck wrote:

But if it does NOT copy the label across, then the backup disk would not boot (in a restore situation) due to an invalid identification problem, similar to the UUID that I'm working around.
PS: I deal with this by editing the necessary files after each backup.
In my case, I'm copying over network, so I can simply have the same UUIDs in both arrays. The MACs OTOH require fiddling:
sed --in-place --file=- /srv/backup/root/etc/udev/rules.d/*persistent-net.rules <<-EOF s/00:1b:21:0d:32:8d/00:1b:21:c6:4f:fc/ s/00:1b:21:b6:67:14/00:1b:21:b6:65:98/ s/00:1b:21:b6:67:15/00:1b:21:b6:65:99/ s/00:1b:21:b6:67:16/00:1b:21:b6:65:9a/ s/00:1b:21:b6:67:17/00:1b:21:b6:65:9b/ s/1c:6f:65:c6:47:56/1c:6f:65:c6:47:46/ EOF
