don't edit mtab. The system maintains that.
Yes, if you relable one of the /boot partitions then you can do as
suggested for mounting.
Also, if you know the partition device name (/dev/hda1 for example) you
can use that with a line such as
/dev/hda1 /mountpoint ext3 ......... same as on the /boot
partition.
However. you meed to either use the device name for both in fstab or
change a label on one to something different.
