 I guess either of these will work but only if label is the same as the
mount point.  That is indeed the case right now but I am not sure that
will always be the case and I hate making assumptions. I dug around in
proc a bit and man'ed my $*$& off but I can't find a simple command that
will return the label from a partition.  I can set it with tune2fs
according to the man page but not list it.  cfdisk -P [ast] gives me
allsorts of cool stuff but not the lablel.  I gues it moght be in the
raw dump of the partition table but I thought surely there is something
I am missing.  I may get pissed and start digging around in the mount
code since it can read fstab with only labels so I know there is a
system call that has to accomplish this somehow.  You know I am out of
control if I go digging in c code :) 

Seems crazy to me.

Thanks guys.

Bret
