I don't find that to be true at all. For non-removable media except / you can
simply use UUIDs everything should be fine. For / you can generally use a
UUID, too. Removable media can be handled in a variety of ways. I prefer
using udev to fill in any gaps; writing udev rules doesn't really require
familiarity with hardware (udev will tell you everything useful) and there are
some descent guides available.

Boyd, you may not have noticed but this user posted a lot of random
one sentence things to the mailing list. I doubt this is a serious
question and is probably best left ignored.
