I rebooted my server and on boot up I received an error that ...
couldn't find matching file system: LABEL=/home1

I was able to edit the /etc/fstab and rem out the line that mounts /home1, I
then did a reboot, and was able to boot up correctly.

If I did a mount -a I got the error...
mount: special device LABEL=/home1 does not exist

When I did a ...
mount /dev/hdb1 /home1

It mounted fine, with no errors.
Any one have any ideas???
