So, I have to do this from a CD/DVD. Well, once done, it is done.

Another hiccup for the record. When you add/change a label, you have to
reboot for it to take effect. At least that was what I did anyway. The
labels didn't show up until I rebooted. Sort of funny in a way. I have
changed partition layouts before and them take effect without a reboot.
Maybe I should have restarted udev?
Also, I first booted a Gentoo 10.1 DVD and all the drives showed up as
sd**. I didn't see a hd* in the list anywhere. So, if you are not SURE
what each drive will be, boot something that doesn't use the PATA
drivers. For me, I booted a old Gentoo 2006.1 CD. That listed both
hd** and my sda drive. I didn't try my Knoppix disc tho. I'm not sure
what drivers it uses.
Now to figure out how far off the deep end I want to go with editing
fstab. Going to read some replies here and a man page or two. ;-) The
way I figure it, once I edit fstab and get it to boot correctly, it
shouldn't matter whether the drives use IDE or PATA drivers. Then I can
work on the kernel next.

P. S. Any way to label swap? It's not reiserfs or ext*.
