rEFInd Linux Kernel Boot Options

When booting opensuse via rEFInd, the kernel options are wrong (the root device name is incorrect). Where do the kernel arguments that rEFInd is using come from, and how do I modify them? The line I'm looking for is of the form ro root=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-APPLE_SSD_SM768E_S119NYAC612 initrd=boot\initrd-3.7.xxx-default The root argument should be ata-APPLE_SSD_SM768E_S119NYAC612130-part7 as that is where the SUSE root partition is. If I edit the boot options from the rEFInd menu (higlight the SUSE entry, hit F2, hit F2 again on the default entry) and modify the options to include the 130-part7 suffix, everything works fine. If not, Linux asks me: > Could not find /dev/disk/by-id/ata-APPLE_SSD_SM768E_S119NYAC612. > Want me to fall back to > /dev/disk/by-id/ata-APPLE_SSD_SM768E_S119NYAC612130-part7? (Y/n) I'd happily hit "Y" here and move on but, unfortunately, the keyboard doesn't work at this stage in the boot process. If I attach a USB keyboard, it works, but I really don't want to carry one around with me. (Perhaps there is a market for a one-key USB keyboard that can be programmed for these things. Dear God...) So, I am left changing the options via the rEFInd menu every time I boot Linux. I'd thought about adding a symlink directing ...612 to ...612130-part7, but the links in /dev/disk/by-id/ are stored in tempfs (ie, not persistent). Also, that is a crappy solution. Help?!
