Partition labled as _PNG

I booted up my PC today and one of the partitions on my hard drive is labled _PNG instead what the actual partiton is hdb6. This shows up on the desktop icon for the partition. Any ideas how to fix this so the correct volume label shows? Thanks.

What does the /etc/fstab file have in it.

I have /dev/hdb6 mounting to /media/hdb6 in the fstab file.

No idea as to the cause.

You need to rename your partition label. If the partition is ext2 or ext3 then you need to use a program called e2label.
