          The problem is that although df shows information about the device specified by the UUID, the first column of its output still refers to it by the /dev/sdXY block device name - so the grep fails to match.



          In fact, there's no need to use grep at all - you can use awk to skip the header line (and even to remove the % sign):



          $ df -P /dev/sda1 | awk 'NR == 2 print substr($5,1,length($5)-1) '
          80

          $ df -P /dev/disk/by-uuid/79b5546e-5b3e-4299-becb-5f0cad06cf5f | awk 'NR == 2 print substr($5,1,length($5)-1) '
