Changing Storage Label On Linux
On Windows, you can simply right click on a device and rename it. On Linux in the other hands, you can use the following method:
During formatting, use let say if you want FAT as the filesystem:
Let say the device is located in /dev/sdc and I want it to be named as "najmi-archsight". Issue this command:
sudo mkfs.vfat -I /dev/sdc -n "najmi-archsight"
While let say in the other hand, you already got a data inside and want to change the label, use dosfslabel:
1- If the device is mounted, unmount it first2- Issue this command:
Let say here I want to rename the device to "najmi-csm". The device is firstly mounted at /media/B807-ED09
najmi@vostro:~$ df -kh

/dev/sda5 47G 42G 3.1G 94% /
udev 1.9G 4.0K 1.9G 1% /dev
tmpfs 752M 1.4M 750M 1% /run

/dev/sdc 3.8G 2.5M 3.8G 1% /media/B807-ED09
Unmount first: najmi@vostro:~$ sudo umount /media/B807-ED09/
Label it: najmi@vostro:~$ sudo dosfslabel /dev/sdc "najmi-csm"
Check and plug back/mount the drive: najmi@vostro:~$ df -kh
