    Label a Linux Swap Partition

    Is it possible to label a Linux Swap Partition? I can't find anything that allows me to do so.

    Yes, it is possible to label a Linux Swap Partition. You do it when creating/formatting it.

    Code:
    mkswap -L <labelname>
    -L label Specify a label, to allow swapon by label. (Only for new style swap areas.)
