      Workaround:

      Description: chapter 8 around p294 talks about using blkid to show the uuids. if you look at the blkid man page it basically tells you that you are better off using lsblk, due to the caching presumably.
      Why do we not also recommend lsblk in line with the man page and also to reduce the confusion if a student runs blkid as student prior to having run it as root?

      (also applies to rh134)
