Did you try to "edit" the partitions? In my experience, DiskDruid does not
show the partition names on the initial screen, just the list of /dev names.
When I select one of the partitions and then click on "edit", it shows what
the previous name was and includes it in the drop down list. YMMV.
But then, I'm on a desktop system with a server type (dual cpu) motherboard
but I wouldn't expect that to make a difference in DiskDruid.
