</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> # mkfs.ext4 -m 1 -L mgaroot /dev/sda1 # mkswap -L swap /dev/sda2 #
</I>>><i> mkfs.ext4 -m 0 -L home /dev/sda3

</I>>><i> The -m parameters above specifies the percentage reserved for the

</I>>><i> reboot to the installer and choose Custom Partitioning, assign your
</I>>><i> pre-existing partitions and be sure _untick_ the [ ] Format boxes
</I>>><i> then continue installing as usual.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> After the installation, you can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst replacing
</I>>><i> each UUID=<blahblahblah> with LABEL=<label>. For example:
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> root=LABEL=mgaroot (and) resume=LABEL=swap
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Similarly in /etc/fstab, you can have entries like:
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> LABEL=mgaroot / ext4 relatime 1 1 LABEL=swap swap swap
</I>>><i> defaults 0 0
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> So the 'nickname' feature you request is available with a little
</I>>><i> pre-install preparation and post-install config file editing.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Hope this helps -- RJ
</I>>><i>
</I>><i> Thanks. It will help a lot for my own use. However, that really
</I>><i> needs to be included in the gui disk partitioning, so that people can
</I>><i> find and use it. I'm fairly sure there is no way to do that at present.

</I>hum..
when in disk-patitioning on mcc if you toggle to expert mode
therre is a "label" menu (have not tested it though, so don't know if
it goes up to writing the right stanza in fstab).
