Thank you for your answer.

   I look your document and using "udev" to create "mydevXXX".  This device is work, but NOT what I want.  

The reason are:

1. what I want is my device sequence must:
     boot and root on /dev/sda
     swap on /dev/sdb

2. udev ONLT create a "link" from "mydevXXX" back to original.  It did NOT official change device name.  
   e.g.:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Jul  1 11:19 mysda -> sdc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  1 11:19 mysda1 -> sdc1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  1 11:19 mysda2 -> sdc2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  1 11:19 mysda3 -> sdc3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Jul  1 11:19 mysdb -> sdd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  1 11:19 mysdb1 -> sdd1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  1 11:19 mysdb2 -> sdd2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Jul  1 11:19 mysdc -> sde
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  1 11:19 mysdc1 -> sde1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  1 11:19 mysdc2 -> sde2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  1 11:19 mysdc3 -> sde3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Jul  1 11:19 mysdd -> sda
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  1 11:19 mysdd1 -> sda1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Jul  1 11:19 mysde -> sdb
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  1 11:19 mysde1 -> sdb1
