Or just the VM install? Sure. What about an example fstab using names and UUIDs at the same time, or and fstab with UUID and one with labels if they cannot be used simultaneously in the same fstab.

I'm working on setting up a bunch of old boxes to test installations on actual hardware. Part of that is more AC and UPS capacity in the lab. Wiring and more breakers (AFCI/GFI) so the project has grown and there are other non related HW issues I'm working on too. > The only thing they aren't targeted at is EFI.

Previously we have discuss MBR/EFI grub1-grub2, gpt (>< wT disks) and tools to effect the (/boot/root/swap). And then there is the need for a quick or unattended install semantic, before I can rigorously test those many conflicts. I'll start a new thread when I'm ready. Best guess is a few weeks. thx, James
