Package: util-linux
Version: 2.17.2-9
Severity: normal
1. For interoperability reason, I created a UDF parititon on *hard disk* with
mkudffs, like this:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda3 bs=512
mkudffs -b 512 --media-type=hd --vid=thisismylabel /dev/sda3
2. To make sure the label was written, I did
dd if=/dev/sda3 bs=1M count=10 | strings | grep thisismylabel
which returned success (I limited the search to be at most 10MB to save
time).
3. But then the command
blkid /dev/sda3
*only* reported the filesystem type.
/dev/sda3: TYPE="udf"
which was wrong because I expected it to report the LABEL. The correct
output should be
/dev/sda3: LABEL="thisismylabel" TYPE="udf"
4. Using a block size of 1024 for mkudffs (-b 1024) yielded the same wrong
result.
5. However using a block size of 2048 yielded the *correct* result. blkid *did*
return the label.
