How Do You Edit Disk Labels?
Most flash drives use the FAT filesystem, and this allows them to store a "disk label". When you plug a flash drive into your computer, and Gnome/KDE shows its icon, this is the name it'll use with the icon. In Windows you can edit this name just by right-clicking on the drive. As far as I can tell, Linux has no similar feature. This doesn't sound like a very complicated task, but I get nothing from Google.
Note, I'm not asking how to edit fstab, or the device's mount folder, as changing these doesn't change the name stored on the physical device. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? This seems like such a simple stupid little thing, but hours of Googling have brought me nothing.
