James: Some discussion on modifying the Gentoo Handbook to > describe how to use Disk Labels is warranted? > > Many have switched to disk labels in fstab. Maybe > the Gentoo handbook should include a section on disk label > usage to prepare for the future? Josh: If someone's willing to provide the text, then sure, I'll consider adding it to the handbooks, but if not, then I won't spend any energy trying to write something up. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just look at the Handbook. 2.Disk Labels usage is missing. 3. Actual Results: Disk Labels are the future and sooner or later we'll be forced to use Disk Labels. Better to document how to properly set up disk labels rather that having hundreds or thousands of new users (over time) be force to convert a live system from mounts to disk labels. Expected Results: Beautiful, well written <optional> section on disk label usage. Leave the mount point example but provide an optional section in the Handbook on proper use of disk labels and fstab example.
