systemd-207 vs fstab

How can I restore systemd's functionality to actually follow what I have in /etc/fstab? I'm using one of those mixed partition tables on a 32-bit EFI mac and don't want to rely on systemd automatically mounting certain partitions based on a GPT id. I might have multiple such partitions and not want to mount all or another scenario where this feature has to be disabled. Right now I have to manually 'swapon' the swap partition.

what exactly is the problem? you use can fstab just as before and the GPT generator will not have any effect unless you specifically set the corresponding id via gdisk.

I guess. There seems to be a bug in systemd, but according to the upstream bug report , there are aware of it and working on it. But as as far as I can see, this has absolutely nothing to do with the GPT generator. I'm sure this will be fixed before systemd 207 hits [core].

No one to blame here, [testing] is meant to find these kind of bugs.

yes https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69291 sounds like the same bug. Thanks.

It looks like it has already been fixed:

I'm not sure when the release will be updated though.
