I did a google search and discovered that e2label can make just fine

kernel panic and all that shit!
I had to use my fedora 7 DVD and select Rescue. When it got to the
point I asked it to mount my fedora 7 system and it FAILED! I had to use
mount the darn thing myself and then use joe to remove the dam labels I
made and replaced them with /dev/sdb5 which thank God now work! Now it
will boot again.
Labels just work here. You probably didn't enter them into fstab correctly (you
need to enter LABEL=fedora_7, not just fedora_7). Please don't blame the
utilities unless you have proof it's them which screwed up and not you!
Please no one mention labels AGAIN!
labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels
labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels
labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels labels
labels ;-)

It was my fault because info e2label never mentioned you must have
label= but I recall that now is the case. I might try again tomorrow and
change just one and see if I can get it to work. Can I do the same for
swap as well. I guess so but I tried and it said there were a bad
superblock.
But the loading of F7 had some weird Label on both swaps.
