Make sure you have the geom_label module loaded, or have "options GEOM_LABEL" in your kernel config file. It's also a bit sensitive; if your filesystem doesn't completely fill the partition it's in, you won't get a label, so if you have resized partitions and not yet run growfs it won't show up. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
