UUIDs in fstab

[Christopher L Tubbs II <ctubbsii@xxxxxxxxx>]

Has anybody noticed that F9-pre installer creates an /etc/fstab file 
based on UUIDs instead of LABELs? I seem to remember everybody all 
worked up about LABELs instead of the traditional /dev/sda2 type 
identifiers, in order to simplify changes to hard drive configuration. 
But now, all of a sudden I've got this 32-character long UUID that makes 
everything complicated again.

Granted, I understand that a UUID is just as good as a LABEL, as far as 
functionality goes, but LABELs are so much easier to read, compare, and 
type. Why would the F9 installer choose to create UUIDs instead of 
readable LABELs? I have no idea.
