I believe you mixed up ext[23] file system labels and mount points.  The 
label will be /1 (in an pitty attempt to make labels uniq if you have an 
old installation on some other partition), but the mount point for it 
will be /.  Check fstab and grub.conf files, and you'll see that 
reference for partition is /1, but reference for root mount point is /.
