So now you see different labels on=20 different systems which is not good too. Also that bsd project UDFclient (which is working on Linux too!)=20 is using LogicalVolumeIdentifier as volume/disk name in newfs_udf=20 tool. I looked into grub2 code and it is identifying UDF label also=20 from LogicalVolumeIdentifier. So if you want to boot something=20 from UDF FS via grub you probably see label problems... So I think that rather than using broken linux implementation is=20 better to fix it (which could bring problems with different label=20 names in new version). And I would like to see human readable=20 label as "555e3160". =2D-=20 Pali Roh=C3=A1r pali.rohar@gmail.com --nextPart1579508.6HPngyuVWt Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAlSBF4IACgkQi/DJPQPkQ1IK8ACfSMhVJlDygQv5SmWeiNfgkL59 aEgAoK7l+7B1fEIvv//ZgPNmg9tU48Lq =f5Lz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1579508.6HPngyuVWt--
