Package: gnome-volume-manager
Version: 2.24.1-4
Severity: minor
On Debian Lenny, if you'd plug in a USB HDD which is not labeled, then the
volume manager would choose an arbritary friendly name for it like "disk" or
"disk-1" (if "disk" was used already).
On Debian Squeeze, if the drive has no label, it will be mapped with its long
UUID. In the shell you'll then change to a path like
"/media/14e11a9d-18ca-4079-b6c6-288bdc10ec16/" to access files and directories
there. Of course the same will appear in Nautilus' address bar.
If (for whatever reason) has one or more unlabeled drives, then accessing them
will be confusing because you can't identify them without a friendly name. The
long pathes are also hard to follow when you're on the shell.
As a current workaround, labeling the drive helps. The drive's label will then
be served as the root of the mapped drive.
