Jason,
That solved the problem. Thank you very much for the detailed instructions. I really appreciate it.

bDid you change the filesystem type after the initial build? I believe that
label is an ext2/3 thing ('man e2label' for more info). Here's all you need
to do to fix it.
1) 'mv /video /video.bak'
-move the /video folder someplace else so that you can access the current
contents once you have properly mounted your partition.
2) 'mkdir /video'
-create a new mountpoint
3) 'fdisk -l' to find the large partition that you created.
-it should be easy to spot.
4) edit /etc/fstab and replace "LABEL=/video" with the actual partition that
you want to mount (probably either "/dev/hda3" or "/dev/hda5"
5) 'mount -a'
-mount all of the partitions listed in /etc/fstab
6) 'mount'
-is it mounted? If yes, then 7
7) 'df -h'
-is it as big as you expect it to be? If yes, then 8
8) 'mv /video.bak/* /video/'
-move everything that used to be in that directory to the new directory
9) 'rmdir /video.bak'
-get rid of the old dir
