As, I already mentioned, those are to be added while installation just 
like linux does. That's what I'm asking for. When /etc/fstab is 
generated at the end of installation, instead of putting in, say, 
/dev/wd0a, put the UUID (automatically, by default, just like linux).
As for the specifics of how to accomplish this, or the problems that we 
might encounter, as I said, I still haven't looked into it, although, it
appears to be fairly simple.
