Is there any way, when installing CentOS (or any RH-based distro), to prevent it from using disk labels in /etc/fstab and /boot/grub/grub.conf, and to force it to just use the actual device names?
I dont think there is any sane way, in either the C4 or C5 installers. If you do find a way to do that, let me know.
There is presently a conversation going on with the anaconda developers about dropping labelling completely, but that might be a long time before we see that in EL / CentOS released distros
For testing purposes, I am installing two different CentOS versions in different partitions, and am having to change from labels to device names by hand, and re-label the disks, in order to avoid the boot process getting confused between the filesystems.
you could always just change fstab, perhaps a sneaky script in %post of the kickstart to do the hard work for you ?
