Anaconda is smart enough to create labels which do not conflict with
already existing ones. At least this was the case when I was adding
new installations on the same machine. I could redo later these
labels to be consistent across a particular installation but this is
only for my own sanity. I may have five or six distros, between
Fedora and CentOS and x86_64 and i386, on my test box at a given
moment.
I was not aware anaconda was now doing this correctly, that certainly would be
an improvement over the last time I tried multiple physical installations.
