In that case, it doesn't matter what the drives are actually labelled as. The label and the mount point don't have to be related. The label could well have been seagate2 with that mountpoint, it would have worked. You can also relabel partitions, just remember to also change the fstab to suit, before rebooting (or before re-reading the available drives in some other manner). -- (Currently running FC4, but testing FC5, if that's important.)
