PARTUUID is used by GPT and acts as a UUID at the partition level, useful if disk encryption is used, as it may be the only way to ID that encrypted partition.
I so miss this guy and he was THE reason I stuck with Linux. His explanation was easy to understand but was unliked by some of the community and driven off RUclips.
@@carbondated6151I'm curious, why was he unliked by some of the community? I feel like that is ridiculous, he is just out here trying to help people and he seems like the nicest and most genuine guy. I've learned crucial stuff from him that is easy to overlook, not a lot of other creators highlight these important, very basic points like he does in a way that is very clear and easy to understand. One video of his I learned more than watching an entire playlist from other people who make linux videos.
@@steveyuhas9278 Some time ago Joe made a RUclips video explaining THAT this was his last vid and some people had taken their disagreement to new level and made it personal. I don't understand what makes people who have difference of opinion, turn it in to a personal attack.
PARTUUID is used on Raspberry Pi to designate the root partition so it knows how to mount the root file system. It probably has other uses to general PC hardware but I’ve never used it on a PC system.
*** Remember when in doubt, MAKE A BACKUP COPY of /etc/default/grub as well as /etc/fstab ( if you're using say...Linux Mint for example.

does that mean if Im using linux mint on a macbook that this file doesnt apply? Also in the nano fstab screen I dont appear to have a mention of home. A couple od issues I am having re wifi not staying on at suspend and messages at boot were addressed on the linux forum and mike said he thought it might be the fstab file, hence my visit here. Is there any way to get a copy of that to you without clogging up this message area.
At around 23:30 you started to say something about "sshin", but got distracted by the pc not being on. What is sshin? I couldn't find anything with Google.

Another great video in the video you mention about reinstall the os without damaging your home folder when it on a different partitions have you made a video about this or can you suggest a youtube video shown this. The trouble I find is finding somebody who is any good. Did use JustAGuy Linux but he hasn't posted anything for months.
How do you add a second virtual hard drive to a guest linux VM in VirtualBox and then migrate your home directory to it? If the drive labeling is [sda through sdz] what if there are more than 26 actual drives to be attached?
23:45 "Radio Gold"🤣😋You should have made up a PSA for Linux and had it cued up so you could "be back right after this." The major sets the type of the device, usually the driver associated with it. The minor list the first, second, third, ... device of that type. There's only one driver per major number and multiple minors are handled by it. Of course, now it is possible to dynamically allocate those numbers. (Plagiarized from StackOverflow)

Hi Joe. 11:16 RM means removable. 0 is non removable, 1 is removable. As far as I remember. Cheers mate!

evening Joe, I'm new to Linux. Thanks to you I'm understanding it better all the time. Keep up the great work!
Joe's the best!

Nice to hear from you again, Joe. Great primer on fstab!

Thanks for making this. It will be a handy reference.
Joe, you ROCK !
Awesome, thanks for the video JC ! love your videos--please keep making them !
GVJ = Great vid Joe.
Hi Joe, Awesome topic. I had to learn some of this the hard way to set up a 2T Steam Game drive that auto mounts.

I remeber "dump" from college/ Glad to see you back with this stuff. Joe
So I was sitting on the /dev/null when Joe was talking about that.

Joe,
Thanks, big time, for your video on FSTAB.

Great video i always learn so much from your videos and nano -B for backup it what i use.

I thought I knew all i needed to know about fstab. Immediately I'm tought that it itsn't pronounced "f stab" but "fs tab". My world has been turned.

At approx. 34:20, is "sdb" with 0B a card reader (with no card inserted)?
Yes. That is exactly what it is... I figured it out later, of course..

Hi Joe, how do I change disk ID in fstab , I have cloned opensuse 12 disk, but the cloned one uses disk id of master disk and does not boot
You need to boot from a live USB and then edit that file from there. Make sure it has the proper UUID's.
I have 4 HDDs and something messed up my fstab file. Now everything is fine :)

How's the little Asus eeepc and big Asus doing Joe?
They are still alive and well. The little one is a file server and the big one is playing games for my son. :)
@@EzeeLinux awesome!
Why do not use 'lsblk -f'?
Because I didn't know about it... Thanks for the heads up! :)
You just cp /etc/fstab then maybe you only need edit on /etc/fstab, no necessary run mv command again.
lsblk: MAJor, MINor device numbers. RM removable
I must be older than you since I used dump 😀
