Question for Arvin - added to CC.
As long as you have not set a label the mount method cannot be
by-label.
It's also unclear e.g. whether you *create* the volume before or
after you have set the default mount-by method.
Some people have the foresight to plan in advance of installation how they
want their storage configured, and have it ready to go when installation begins.
I thought it perfectly clear by saying
for a freshly formatted target / partition with volume label
That means I did, and do, all partitioning, and filesystem creation, in
advance of starting any operating system installer. I use one and only one
partitioning tool for all my systems and disks. It's one never included in
any Linux, Mac or Windows installer, but has binaries for DOS, Linux, Mac,
OS/2 & Windows, which means there's never any partition table incompatibility
among operating systems on my disks as long as no installer has done
something unnecessary, unwanted and unauthorized.
