One more example showing LABEL use in grub (from my USB Debian boot stick):

--------------
root at grayzing:~# grep LABEL /boot/grub/grub.cfg  -C2
         fi
         echo    'Loading Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 ...'
         linux   /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-4-amd64 root=LABEL=USBROOT ro  quiet
         echo    'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
         initrd  /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-4-amd64
