Mar 22, 2019 at 8:12 comment added Noob My /etc/fstab already contains a valid LABEL. But the label is not added to my /boot/grub/grub.cfg file. If I update my grub with update-grub it contains /dev/sda1 instead of LABEL=root.

Mar 21, 2019 at 20:07 comment added telcoM Seems to me it's about how to use the LABEL syntax to specify the root filesystem in the kernel command line. According to the /etc/fstab example in the question, @Noob already knows how to use it there. The suggested duplicate includes examples and mentions the caveat that the LABEL syntax is really parsed by the initramfs, not the kernel itself; so it will only work if initramfs is being used.
