      I have changed /boot/grub/menu.lst file and the /etc/fstab file to use /dev/sdax format instead of the uuid format, but after download the image, even when I downloaded it to the same computer, the system still won’t boot, it will goes to dracut mode.

      Does anyone know how to fix this uuid problem? In the past, when I use Ubuntu or Scientific Linux, by changing menu.lst and the fstab file, everything will work. But for this Mageia system, I don’t know what’s going on.

      thanks,
      Hongyun

        By the way, it only complaints about the swap partition uuid doesn’t exist.

          @Hongyun I have this exact same error but in my case the UUID not found is my / which is my boot partition. Too bad your post remains unanswered. BTW, if you are still around, are your partition(s) EXT by chance? I’m using Rocky 8.10.
