Last night I switched the drive places on the ribbon, and it's been up
all night. So far so good- almost 12 hours uptime.

I personally don't like LVM and I did set the partitions manually
during install, being careful NOT to use LVM. The partition manager
part of the install is a pain- I had to manually set which blocks each
partition used in order to get them in the order that I want them
(/boot first, / second, /home third). But now when I look in fstab I
see this:

LABEL=/                 /                       ext3    defaults        1 1
LABEL=/boot             /boot                   ext3    defaults        1 2
devpts                  /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0
tmpfs                   /dev/shm                tmpfs   defaults        0 0
LABEL=/home             /home                   ext3    defaults        1 2
LABEL=/home/dotancohen  /home/dotancohen/music  ext3    defaults        1 2
LABEL=/home/dotancohe1  /home/dotancohen/pictures ext3    defaults        1 2
LABEL=/home/dotancohe2  /home/dotancohen/video1 ext3    defaults        1 2
LABEL=/home/dotancohe3  /home/dotancohen/video2 ext3    defaults        1 2
proc                    /proc                   proc    defaults        0 0
sysfs                   /sys                    sysfs   defaults        0 0
LABEL=SWAP-hda2         swap                    swap    defaults        0 0

Are those labels LVM? I don't see any reference to hda, hdb, etc and
I'm a bit worried.
