Package: partman Version: RC2 Followup-For: Bug #249041
Hi, I posted the following on debian-devel and was told that I should file the bug against partman (so here you are! ;-) ): I don't know if my opinion counts but I _did_ notice that d-i creates labels, and at the same time broke my parallel Red-Hat FC2 installation, which all of soudain tried to use my debian root partition (LABEL=/) as its own root partition, without luck of course, and with a lot of really strange error messages. It took me quite a while to figure out the problem, so here is the message: labels do only properly work at install time, if no other system is using them as well. So, I don't think it's especially a good idea to set labels by default.
