Re: Labels and mounting problems

Is there a place where you can see the actual labels set up, not just in
the fstab; and is there a way to get rid of no longer needed labels?

For an individual partition, you can grep for "^Filesystem volume"
from the output of dumpe2fs <partition>, e.g.:

# dumpe2fs /dev/hdc6|grep ^Filesystem\ volume
dumpe2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006)
Filesystem volume name: <none>

(There is no label set on this filesystem).

Use the "-L" option to tune2fs to set volume labels.
