Ok so its a bug(feature?) HEH. alright. Well I'll just deal with it for now.

Is there a way to fix the appended 1 after a completed install.

Yes.

mount

Take note of the partitions and their devices.

e2label /dev/hdxy labelname

Repeat the above command substituting "x" for the actual device and "y" for partition number. Does this for each device and partition.

sudo emacs /etc/fstab

Remove the 1's from the entries which needed to be changed and reboot. You shouldn't have any issues. If you make a mistake, you'll have to boot into single user and fix whatever mistakes you made. You can also use the rescue portion of your first cd to fix the problem.

Voila.

HTH
