Yea, I've had that one happen too. The e2label program is the one
you need to fix that and/or editing the /boot/grub.conf and
/etc/fstab files (which you can get at by booting rescue mode off
dvd) to use /dev/sda1 type partition names instead of labels.

Speaking of e2label, anyone know a tool that is willing to edit
the disk label info on non-ext[23] partitions?

I've lately arrived at the conclusion that the best combination
is to give the partitions labels that the installer would never use,
then refer to those in the grub.conf and fstab files. That way
I have the moveable disk advantage of labels, but never get
collisions.
