It seemed to be just what I needed but I can't get it to change the
volume name. As root, I used the command:
tune2fs -L Float /dev/sdc1
It appeared to work but when I looked at it's properties, the Volume
name hadn't changed. Do you see anything wrong with the command?
Issue the command "mount -l". The line for the device should list the
label if it has one.
I don't know if you need to remount the partition, too :-?

I knew it was something simple. It was me. There are three entities
involved: Label; Volume Name; and Gnome. Gnome renames 'label' to 'name'
and then uses 'volume name' as a display name. I had them all confused.
To make a long story short and to keep from confusing everyone, I now
have all four volumes labeled, named, and mounting in a consistent
sequence. Thanks for everyone's help.
Yet another reason to stay away from Gnome.
I swear the Gnome developers are brain dead.
