Robert Moskowitz: > How do I do that? What file system is used on the drive? If it's Ext3, there's the e2label command. If it's FAT, you have to assign a Windows-like drive letter, then use the DOS/FAT drive labelling commands to label the drive. Though, the simplest solution, if you can plug it into a Windows box, is to do so, and right-click and rename the drive. It irks me, seeing how Gnome plays so heavily upon using the name of the drive as a mount point, that we have to go through all these shenanigans to rename a drive, when Windows users have it so easy. Sure, make us type in a root password to allow the change, but let us right-click on a drive and rename it. -- [...@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
