I'm unclear whether you think this would have helped my problem. I
think not. Using Stuart's info he said grb had two parts. In my case
grub said 'GRUB' but didn't say 'GRUB second phase loader' or whatever
that language is. I assume grub cannot find fstab on it's own,
correct?
Labels are sort of nice for my 1394 drives when I need to hook up
multiple drives and keep them straight, but actually I don't use them
for my systems.
thanks,
Mark
