/etc/fstab ... is that right?

Here is what fstab looks like on all my instances when I fire up a cluster :

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
# <file system>                                 <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc                                            /proc           proc    nodev,noexec,nosuid 0       0
LABEL=cloudimg-rootfs                                       /               ext3    defaults        0       0
/dev/sdb        /mnt    auto    defaults,nobootwait,comment=cloudconfig 0       0


I'm guessing it's not hurting anything but that must be wrong on the 2nd entry.

Here you can read more about fstab:
http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Fstab

It seems like a device can be a LABEL or UUID.

I am a n00b as stated, but I've never see LABEL=  in an fstab.    No offense meant :-)

Why do you think there is something wrong with that?
