Rearrange partitions to install a second Linux distribution I usually save a live (recovery) CD in /boot, so I usually make it 1 GB or a bit more. |

How do I name a partition? Yeah, technically, you are right because you're writing about a partition label, but a filesystem can be labelled too. That's why parted returns error - it does not deal with the filesystem. But this point is moot, since nobody is going to use a partition without a filesystem inside. |

You can use filesystem-specific tools, like e2label, or Gparted, that runs them for you. Gparted Manual, Setting a partition label // Gparted Features Support table which you can also see via the "View" >> "File system support" menu. |
