Now I think I understand what you want ;)
If the error occurs after booting , then here's what you can do.. Edit
the fstab and replace "LABEL=/boot" with the
real device. This way , the system will not try to do a mount by
label... Another possible solution is changing the labels of all filesystems
to something other than "/" , "/boot" and "/home" for example.. I used
"/fc1" as the label of the root partition of FC1 when I reinstalled
my system some time ago to use the test releases... To change the labels
, use e2label for ext2/ext3 filesystems. Then , put the new labels in fstab
and everything should work perfectly...
