All,

Question related to those I asked earlier in the week... Can 
setup-storage put a label on a disk partition so that it can be mounted 
via the label rather than the uuid?  I am guessing not beccause parted 
doesn't do that (as far as I can tell). I guess I can use e2label and 
xfs_admin in a script. But But I think I am going to have to reproduce 
some of the logic in setup-storage in order to make sure the label 
matches the partition.
