Sure. What about an example fstab using names and UUIDs
at the same time, or and fstab with UUID and one with labels
if they cannot be used simultaneously in the same fstab.

(boot root and swap only :: just to keep it simple)

I'm working on setting up a bunch of old boxes to test installations
on actual hardware. Part of that is more AC and UPS capacity in
the lab. Wiring  and more breakers (AFCI/GFI) so the project has 
grown and there are other non related HW issues I'm working on too.

Yep. Previously we have discuss MBR/EFI  grub1-grub2,  gpt  (>< wT disks)
and tools to effect the (/boot/root/swap). And then there
is the need for a quick or unattended install semantic, before
I can rigorously  test those many conflicts. I'll start a new thread
when I'm ready. Best guess is a few weeks.


thx,
James
