@maxhq Hello again. The ability to display current boot temp short names (sdX) in Disks as an option has been discussed and the disk model does maintain them but they are currently held just for this pending UI tweak. We use the by-id names for boot to boot stability but yes in some settings it would be nice to be able to switch to showing the temp short names. No good from one boot to the next though is the problem hence the new default of by-id which are stable.
At a guess I would say you ran into the “cosmetic” issue here:
Re the removal via bin icon as it’s still relying on a previous mechanism that is now at odds with other code. So it requires a resent rescan in order that the ‘fake’ device name be recent enough to access the db entry. We need to move this to a serial based search really, that way it will be in sync with the more recent code. I’ve added this forum thread to that issue to help encourage it’s fix along a tad.
Your report has brought more to the for, at least for me, how this issue is rather more important that I at least had previously thought. I’ll try and get to it myself soon as in this particular scenario it’s a bit of a pain and really lends itself to making thing worse at a delicate time. Oh well, bit by bit.
Just seen the edit with the link to the disk page images. Is that how things look now (in the #2 pic)?
Also can you paste the output of:
lsblk -P -o 'NAME,MODEL,SERIAL,SIZE,TRAN,VENDOR,HCTL,TYPE,FSTYPE,LABEL,UUID'
and
mount | grep btrfs
We definitely have some work to do in this area though.
Incidentally, as a side note, have you tried “-d sat” as custom smart options on that sandisk ultra?
