I believe this is the supported way to use labels: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
$ grep -v -e "^#" -e "^$" /etc/fstab |
| 20 |
LABEL=boot /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2 |
| 21 |
LABEL=/ / ext4 noatime 0 1 |
| 22 |
LABEL=swap none swap sw 0 0 |
| 23 |
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro,users 0 0 |
| 24 |
LABEL=space /mnt/space ext4 noatime 0 3 |
| 25 |
shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0 |
| 26 |
$ |
| 27 |
|

Stroller. |
