Hi
I'm trying to boot with a labelled root disk.
I specify root=LABEL=<label name> in my grub menu.lst file.
I have used e2label to put a label on the root filesystem.
Howver all I get is the message
Waiting for /dev/LABEL to appear...
Does this syntax work?
The following note:

suggests it worked on SLES8.
Am I doing something wrong?
Searching the grub.info file (why couldn't you have done this?) I find no reference at all to a LABEL parameter.
Have you specified youre LABLE in /etc/vfstab? You can set and reset the lable with mke2fs. Regards /Mattias Ps Dont like it:)
