Even the F7 Rescue > complained :-) Well, I do recall pointing out to you that duplicate labels will be a problem. The fix required is to change one of them. I would relabel your *new* partitions, that leaves your previously set up system still working. > So all my LABEL's are going to disappear. That's throwing out the baby with the bathwater. If you're mounting via labels, you need to ensure drive partitions have unique labels. If you've ended up with a duplicate, you only have to mount the drive without using the labels (you're not removing the labels, just not making use of them). -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.4-65.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
