I see that you have solved. If for some reason you wish to keep both definitions (there may be reasons), just add "noauto" (no quotes) to one or both of the entries. This might be useful when you want to mount a different volume, e.g. as a "temp" mount for backup or copy purposes. This is handy when you have, e.g., a couple identical looking external usb drives that are used for different purposes on multiple machines.
With "label" and "noauto", it keeps me from accidentally mounting the wrong one. No, external labels won't do - purposes change frequently.
I'm not sure I understand this - there are no duplicate entries in fstab, and the /misc volume does not automount during the boot, or didn't the last time I booted the machine.
The problem is that I still have two icons on the desktop for a single mounted disk.
?????
If I want to get rid of the label, how do I do that? 'man e2label' doesn't say how to delete an existing label....
