[Pkg-uml-pkgs] Bug#388121: rootstrap: /etc/fstab uses /dev/ubd0 instead of /dev/ubda

Package: rootstrap
Version: 0.3.23-1
Severity: minor

Hi,

modules/uml creates an /etc/fstab that mentions the / filesystem on
/dev/ubd0 - but ubd0 is uml command line syntax, the actual device is
/dev/ubda. This is harmless, since the rootfs is not mounted based on
the fstab entry. But it's a bad example line if you want to add another
disk (e.g. a swap file) later.

The device name probably has changed at some time, at least when devfs
support was dropped.
