Boot troubles, 11.4

Fresh 64-bit install of 11.4:

****
Here's a portion of the boot msg:

klogd 1.4.1, log source = ksyslog started.

Notice the escape key typo on the word, "part2" which says, "p`art2".
That's not French, folks. </end of jokes>
At this point, (I guess it's grub asking me) a "y/n" if I would like to
use the properly spelled "WDC_WD3000HLFS-01G6U4_WD-WXL808061120-part2",
which it did find.

I type "y" + return, it continues booting kernel stuff, I presume, and on
to KDE.

What is feeding this a typo and where would I fix this one character?
It's feeding the drive info from the disk-ID, is my best guess. FSTAB is
OK. Don't know where else to look. Hate to tear down the build over this,
etc.

Thanks for reading and feedback.
