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.
