Forcing a more random uuid

flat view

My previous post was answered very quickly and with an optimal solution, 
but unfortunately I have a new question...

I'm writing a script to clone a disk with several md devices.

The raid1 volumes are created on the blank disk within a very quick loop, I 
think this is the reason why I get /dev/md5, /dev/md6, /dev/md7 
and /dev/md8 all with the same UUID!

Is there a way to force a more random UUID, or do I have to provide an 
--uid option on the command line?
