As far as I know those labels are not tied to any filesystem, nor
dependent on any. If you use i.e. Partition Magic you will find the
possibility to set a label, so does the old fdisk on DOS.

The Linux kernel requires BSD disk label support compiled in
(CONFIG_BSD_DISKLABEL=y) to use the labels with fstab and how it is used
as kernel command line in the grub.conf on Fedora (Redhat) systems.
