-==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.

-STOP HERE!!!  go back to [[Undead_USB_Install]] now and start from the top code block.
-Come back at DONE! to have the legacy chicken lay the uEFI egg.

-At this point you have legacy mode grub installed & also x86_64 uEfi installed from a legacy boot.
-More experimental garbage:
-i386 efi doesn't insert correctly.  let's try bootloader id = "FUNTOO"

-==gparted==
-gparted isn't granular enough to make bios boot partitions to load legacy mode in GPT.

-/dev/sdc1 name: "BOOT Bios" size: 1MiB flags: bios_grub
-/dev/sdc2 name: "BOOT" file system: fat32 label: BOOT size: 128MiB flags: boot, esp
-/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.
