$ cd /dev/disk
$ ls  
by-id  by-label  by-path  by-uuid
$ file by-uuid/*
by-uuid/0ba23de7-4c30-48e0-951e-58699db87a05: symbolic link to `../../hda9'
by-uuid/225216d1-43fd-4cfb-9e95-ce835a36875a: symbolic link to `../../hda1'
by-uuid/772d7b15-c066-44d7-91d1-b34ee73b29e9: symbolic link to `../../hda8'
by-uuid/a1c85cc8-3ca1-4eae-976a-55a4106513f0: symbolic link to `../../hda6'
by-uuid/b5b47cca-3a22-439c-8e0c-408d8b37156d: symbolic link to `../../hda5'
$ 

That is not GUID, but I hope it helps,
especial the development of syslinux on GPT systems.
