By the way, doesn't this contradict the idea of the host-only mode? Host-Only mode: Install only what is needed for booting the local host instead of a generic host and generate host-specific configuration. Thus, including hard-coded, non-overridable UUID references to a local hard disk doesn't really create a config for a "generic" host as should be done without the host-only option? Having a rd.swap parameter really would help :-) cu, Frank -- Dipl.-Inform. Frank Steiner Web: http://www.bio.ifi.lmu.de/~steiner/ Lehrstuhl f.
