Nautilus currently does not support renaming partitions, this bug proposes to change this. I completely agree. Does this mean these packages will ship with the distro?: ntfsprogs jfsutils reiserfsprogs xfsprogs
If palimpsest (Disk Utility in Karmic) or gparted (GNOME Partition Editor) can re-label an unmounted disk, why not have nautilus do the same thing (i.e. call on the same command line programs that palimpsest and gparted use) to re-label disks? I have a concern though. I have noticed is that you must *unmount* a disk before renaming in. In my (mac/win) experience you can rename a disk as is, in a mounted/unmounted state (in the finder/explorer). If this is a technical limitation, I think the label change can be held on to until the user unmounts the disk or shuts down the system. If someone can explain why Mac/Win users can rename a disk while mounted but we have to unmount to rename, please let me know. -- provide support for changing volume labels https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/68924 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
