 Well, let me tell you this: If you compare these two lines from /etc/fstab, I 
must say I find the first line more informative than the second :) :
/dev/hda2       /       ext2    defaults        1 1
LABEL=/ /       ext2    defaults        1 1

 But then, maybe I should just comment my /etc/fstab. On the other hand, did 
you ever try to install lets say a system with a small (second) rescue 
partition? Can you tell me which partition gets mounted as / ? I haven't seen 
an option to edit these labels during installation.

                                        Bye,

                                        Leonard.
