first, based on what i've seen, the default red hat installation will label all of the constructed ext2/3 filesystems with their respective mount points. fair enough, but what if this is the second installation on that drive, and those labels are already allocated? what will the installer use for subsequent labels for the "same" mount point in the other install? secondly (and possibly related to the first issue), what names does linux rescue mode use to mount existing filesystems from the hard drive under /mnt/sysimage? i had initially assumed that, if labels are forced to be unique, these filesystems would be mounted by their labels. but no -- i deliberately changed a label on one of the filesystems, and it was mounted under /mnt/sysimage with the name of its mount point instead. wouldn't this still cause problems with multiple installs on the same drive with duplicate mount points? rday
