I was then able to use those names in fstab, which was handy because I think fstab would still work even if the drives were connected differently. How does one get gpart labels to show up in /dev? Can I simply list the label as /dev/hdd-1TB-root (in the above example) in fstab and it will happen automagically? Thanks, Gary
