VMware seems IDE and SCSI hard drives, random order

I have Vista host and the guest of Linux with VMWare 6.5.1.

I have configured the 3 virtual hard disks as (1) physical partition (IDE 0:0), (2) vdisk 1 (SCSI 0:0) and (3) vdisk 2 (SCSI 0:1).

I found vmware arranged the order of the different types of readers randomly.

Sometimes I IDE 0:0 in/dev/sdc, SCSI 0:0 to/dev/sda, SCSI 0:1 for/dev/sdb.

Sometimes I IDE 0:0 to/dev/sda, SCSI 0:0 to/dev/sdb, SCSI 0:1 for/dev/sdc.

The order of same type readers, by example, SCSI, is kept uniform - 0:0 is still 0:1, but the order between the different types, IDE and SCSI, is constantly evolving.

I'm exploring to see if there is a worksaround to solve the problem. Otherwise, my virtual disks are mounted correctly.

Hello

Great to hear that your problem is now fixed, or unless you have a work around in place that addresses the main issues.

Sorry if I wasn't clear on the labels that it had to be done with all drives and partitions in order to make it work.

It was indeed the idea that labelling will make the device name of the file fstab independable.

Your response here however it seems also that Ubuntu now is not exchange the names of devices more either, which surprise me a bit.

anyway... If it works, it works and it's results that count
