linux: How can I view all UUIDs for all available disks on my system?

tux_tina

My /etc/fstab contains this: # / was on /dev/sda1 during installation UUID=77d8da74-a690-481a-86d5-9beab5a8e842 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1 There are several other disks on this system, and not all disks are being mounted to the correct location (For example, /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 are sometimes reversed). How can I see the UUIDs for all disks...

Good Linux question — answering as the UphillTech team:

There's a tool called blkid (use it as root or with sudo ), # blkid /dev/sda1 /dev/sda1: LABEL="/" UUID="ee7cf0a0-1922-401b-a1ae-6ec9261484c0" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" you can check this link for more info
