Instead of hardcoded device path.

Also, some of Buildroot configs moved to use PARTLABEL instead.

Fishwaldo commented 1 year ago

PARTLABEL requires a initramfs as the kernel itself can't resolve labels, only Partition UUID's. With the limited ram, not sure we want to go that path? (Although it would be nice!)

PARTLABEL doesn't require initramfs. The FSLABEL does. Since Linux can read PARTUUID, it can resolve PARTLABEL too. But it can't resolve FSUUID and FSLABEL.
