Hi, Martin:

In a recent changeset in Linus' tree, there's your diff which blows up the dasd naming scheme, with the comment:
- Change dasd names from "dasdx" to "dasd_<busid>_".

This breaks mkinitrd, nash, and mount by label (not to mention every zipl.conf out there, because root= aliases to /sys/block/%s). Would you please explain what exactly you were thinking when you submitted that patch?
