GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · comments

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  Install USB drive (I use a SD card with a reader)
2.  it is discovered as /dev/sdc
3.  Reboot

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would expect to see sda/sdb hard drives, sdc usb drive
The USB drive is moved to sdb and the previous sdb is now sdc, which breaks my 
NFS and minidlna setup

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I use the RC1 on a rev A1 device

Please provide any additional information below.

Device discovery is a kernel task, and the order in which
 they appears (enumeration) is not guaranted to always
 be the same.

In your case the usb drive becomes ready before the
 left disk, but other usb disk might behave differently.

If your setup depends on device enumeration, 
then assign filesystems a label, and they will be
 mounted by label and not device name.
