Incorrect Hard disk partiton volume labels
I have three hard disks in my PC , hda is used for /, /home, /boot and swap. I recently installed Fedora 10. Everything seems to setup for disk hda.
I then have partitions sdb1 and sdc1 On the edit partion options for these hard drives when installing F10 I can set the mount point. I have never seen this before with the other distros I have used and usually have to mess around with fstab after install to mount these disks, so was pleased to see this option. Under my previous install (Debian, which I didn't use for long) I had these drives mounted under /media/store1 and /media/store2 This is reflected in the "Edit Parition: /dev/s***" options where the "Original File System Label" is shown as store1 and store2 for each disk However I decided I wanted to mount them under /media/sdb1 and /media/sdc1 So the "Edit Partion: /dev/s***" ended up looking like this Mount Point /media/s*** Original File System Label store* Cannot be changed Format as not selected Resize not selected Encrypt not selected Everything installs great. However when I log in I see both drives on my desktop labelled as store1 and store2. I expected they would be labelled as /dev/s*** Furthermore when I go the properties for these disks and select Permissions it says; 'The permissions of "s***" cannot be determined' However I am able to view the contents and deleted files. It seems to me something has gone wrong with mounting of these disks during installation, only I'm not sure what or how to make sure everything is OK fstab for current installation: Quote:

I've looked into this some more to see if I could find the issue.
I used dumpe2fs to get info on the hard disk. I have taken a screenshot including the info from the dump to try and illustrate the problem. As you can see from dumpe2fs the volume label is /media/sdb1. There is no mention of "store1", so I don't understand where this is coming from. As you can see from the nautilus windows the drive shows correctly under /media/sdb1 but when I then I go into the sdb1 folder the name in the toolbar shows as store1. Also, if I go into the properties for the sdb1 folder I can view the permissions OK. However if I try and view them from the desktop icon I see the same message as in my original post. http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/4425/dtsy.jpg |
Well no idea what I did but it's fixed.
