So, GRUB can not Not quite true. Linux creates a /1 labeled partition when you already have a partition labeled as / on that machine at the time you do the install (dual boot install, or just with partitions you do not want to overwrite that are already labeled). It also does the same for /boot (/boot1) and any other partition label that already exists on another location. However, if you already have an installation and you do a new overwrite install using the same partitions it will happily use the original / label for the new install. > continue with stage2.

The fstab created for mounting partitions is exactly as the newly labeled partitions are named. I have installed numerous times, both with a single installation and with multi-boot configurations. > -- > Xunji Luo/Kevin > Beijing, P.R.China >
