The grub-mkconfig and 10_linux scripts by default attempt to use a UUID to set the root kernel command line parameter and the $root GRUB environment variable. The former can be disabled by setting the GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID variable to "true", but there is currently no way to disable the latter. The generated grub config uses the search command with the --fs-uuid option to find the device that has to be set as $root, i.e: search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root ... This is usually more reliable but in some cases it may not be appropriate, so this patch introduces a new GRUB_DISABLE_UUID variable that can be used to disable searching for the $root device by filesystem UUID. When disabled, the $root device will be set to the value specified in the device.map as found by the grub-probe --target=compatibility_hint option. When setting GRUB_DISABLE_UUID=true, the GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID and GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_PARTUUID variables will also be set to "true" unless these have been explicitly set to "false". That way, the GRUB_DISABLE_UUID variable can be used to force using the device names for both GRUB and Linux.
