|
|
is a unit generator that automatically discovers root,
|
|
<filename>/home</filename>, <filename>/srv</filename>
|
|
and swap partitions and creates mount and swap units
|
|
for them, based on the the partition type GUIDs of
|
|
GUID partition tables (GPT). It implements the <ulink
|
|
url="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/DiscoverablePartitionsSpec/">Discoverable
|
|
Partitions Specification</ulink>. Note that this
|
|
generator has no effect on non-GPT systems, on systems
|
|
where the units are explicitly configured (for
|
|
example, listed in
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>fstab</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>),
|
|
or where the mount points are non-empty.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This generator will only look for root
|
|
partitions on the same physical disk the EFI System
|
|
Partition (ESP) is located on. It will only look for
|
|
the other partitions on the same physical disk the
|
|
root file system is located on. These partitions will
|
|
not be search on systems where the root file system is
|
|
distributed on multiple disks, for example via btrfs
|
|
RAID.</para>

is useful for centralizing file system configuration
|

in the partition table and making manual configuration

unnecessary.</para>
|

<para>This generator looks for the partitions based on

their partition type GUID. The following partition
