I was just bitten again by the LABEL= bug. For some reason, "make install" 2.6 kernels causes a new entry in grub.conf using root=LABEL=/ , even though the entry being copied says /dev/hda? I don't know why - and don't really want to know why - but this causes a panic on my machine, with the root partition not found, even though it has the correct label according to e2label. I understand the supposed advantage of LABEL if one is changing a hard disk, but I just feel the confusion it causes vastly outweighs its merits.
