+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; While I appreciate the intention, from a user PoV, those
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; UUIDs mean b***** all. It would be really nice if, when
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; they are first named, it was possible to allocate a
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; &quot;nickname&quot; for want of a better term.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; if you use it, filesystems also have label functionalities,
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; which iinm are shown in dolphin.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Yeah, I'm not a big fan of UUIDs either so I tend to use
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; labels instead. I always partition and format using
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; command-line tools in the Rescue System. If you do that, you
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; can add the labels yourself. For example:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; # mkfs.ext4 -m 1 -L mgaroot /dev/sda1 # mkswap -L swap
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; /dev/sda2 # mkfs.ext4 -m 0 -L home /dev/sda3
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; The -m parameters above specifies the percentage reserved for
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; the superuser. the -L parameters are the filesystem labels.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; After that, reboot to the installer and choose Custom
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Partitioning, assign your pre-existing partitions and be sure
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; _untick_ the [ ] Format boxes then continue installing as
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; usual.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; After the installation, you can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; replacing each UUID=&lt;blahblahblah&gt; with LABEL=&lt;label&gt;. For
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; example:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; root=LABEL=mgaroot (and) resume=LABEL=swap
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Similarly in /etc/fstab, you can have entries like:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; LABEL=mgaroot / ext4 relatime 1 1 LABEL=swap swap
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; swap defaults 0 0
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; So the 'nickname' feature you request is available with a
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; little pre-install preparation and post-install config file
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; editing.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Hope this helps -- RJ
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Thanks. It will help a lot for my own use. However, that really
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; needs to be included in the gui disk partitioning, so that people
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; can find and use it. I'm fairly sure there is no way to do that at
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; present.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Anne
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; hum.. when in disk-patitioning on mcc if you toggle to expert mode
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; therre is a &quot;label&quot; menu (have not tested it though, so don't know
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; if it goes up to writing the right stanza in fstab).
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> Really? I do normally enable Expert mode, and I've never noticed
+</I>&gt;<i> that! Next time I do an install I'll definitely look for it.
+</I>
+
+It used to work fine at least :)
+I remember making some small changes to diskdrake 4 years ago like
+displaying the label in partition info even in non expert mode and had been
+using labels for many years through diskdrake
+I think there is a display bug when people have UTF-8 in the label
