can you please confirm the EXACT message, as there are clearly some typos there. You've written "LABLE", instead of "LABEL". Is that a translation error or is that actually what it says? there is also shoudl be a space between "LABEL=/" and "rhgb", is this a typo??

Actually, looking at the rest of the error, they do all look like errors on your post specfically, and it can't find the / label. I would boot to a live CD and check the integrity of the hard drive, "fdisk -l /dev/sda", and fsck all the filesystems listed there. Sounds to me like your root fs has failed somehow, unless you've manually changed that label somehow.
