-==undead really targets USB, SSD, and NVME.  Swapping is best handled in a file or turned off.==
-https://www.funtoo.org/Talk:Install/GPT_Partitioning <--correct partitioning to load legacy mode, and uefi mode.
-/etc/fstab reads filesystem labels and ignores partition names.
-file browsers read partition labels, so were using FUNTOO for the root drive so our branding is correct in file browsers.

-/boot/efi/efi/gentoo/grubx64.efi is generated.  doesn't load probably secure boot unsigned image or something like that.
-stab 3
-gpt partitioning via official install method gdisk.
-testing legacy grub + gpt to verify that MBR can be deprecated.
-legacy loaded grub this time from a gpt partition.  i think i didn't delete the fstab defaults, it wasn't mounting root correctly but very close to running.

-/dev/sdc3 name: "funtoo" file system: jfs label: ROOT size: 14.9GiB
-/etc/fstab label grabs the file system label, not the drive name.
-you should be able to name the root drive funtoo, and have it show up as that in other operating systems when the usb is inserted.
