HI!

I have tried to install PVE onto USB stick and it works fine if I append "rootdelay=20" as kernel parameter into GRUB menu.lst because it need to load LVM subsystem first, and then mount the root, but... the problem is another...

if I add a SATA disk in the system, the kernel recognize this one first as /dev/sda and then the USB as /dev/sdb... and all goes wrong in thi way, PVE can't boot correctly

so I've tried various solution... pointing to UUID, labeling partition... without result

how can I fix this issue?
in other words, how can I build a working, portable and usb-bootable installation of PVE?

a good idea could be to create a dedicated device name (eg /dev/usbX where X is th number of partition) at boot time, but I don't know how make it...

some tips?
thanks
