Hi John.

Maybe the best thing to do would be use the Gparted live 
CD partition editor, to boot directly off the CD, and then 
check there are no conflicts with your partition labels?

If so you could edit the partition labels using Gparted (or 
a similar tool) without having to mount any of the hard 
drives?

There are a lot of other partition tools mentioned on the 
Gparted page at:
