I am happy to discover that this is a recognized bug. It has been driving me up a wall since I upgraded from Gutsy to Hardy. I tried booting with a Gutsy LiveCD and the same "104.9 GB Media" Drive Partition Icon label was displayed on mounting an ntfs partition. The same was noted with a Kanotix Thorhammer LiveCD. I went back to booting with a Gutsy LiveCD, created a directory in /media named /media/sda1 Then I manually mounted /dev/sda1
mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 The mounted partition icon appeared on the Desktop and was named "sda1". I was unable to do this in Hardy. In Hardy, the icon display name wants to be "104.9 GB Media" I hope this can be "fixed" as I use various partitions for backups. Proper labelling will save time and help avoid user errors. -- nautilus shows drive labels instead of volume labels https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/30867 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
