Hi,

I need to use partuuid but I also need to have one more extra partition on final image. Seems it’s currently impossible due bbfatal. I’ve added support for extra-parts but I don’t remember why this condition is set there 🙂 . Theoretically it should be possible to used partuuid also for extra partitions or am I missing something? Thanks.

Marek

I can’t see any fundamental reason it wouldn’t work. I guess one of the problems currently is that you can’t express the UUIDs anywhere in [these variables](https://docs.mender.io/3.3/system-updates-yocto-project/variables#mender_extra_parts). So it would mean adding `MENDER_EXTRA_PARTS_UUIDS` or something similar.
