In the latest Linux Journal in the etc/rant column the author makes

He points out the problem of associating entries in the fstab file with
a LABEL-/. If one runs more than one Linux version more than one
partition might have this label.
Or if you have more than one machine and ever move disks around...
I would like to make the suggestion that the Default Label be more
descriptive. The author suggests something like FC%32ROOT.
What does that mean and how does it make it unique? If you are
going to change it, make it work for people who have dozens/hundreds
of machines with swappable drives. As it is, you can't even
boot a machine that has duplicate labeled disks to get to a
point where you can fix it.
