Just to round this off in case anyone should chance to find this in the
future, having giving the partition a label there is no need to turn off
/apps/nautilus/desktop/volumes_visible in gconf-editor or to make a new link
to the partition on the desktop.  The volume shortcut provided automatically
now shows the new label.

Thanks to all again
