[ale] fstab question

In the storage world there is a thing called  "device slipage" which  
can make sda become sdb, sdb become sdc, etc... And if youare using  
the sd*# devices you get screwed.  If you use an unique id for the  
drive/partition that doesn't change the slipage doesn't hurt you.

 From you local storage monkey...
