  • owner changed from axeld to mmlr
  • status changed from new to assigned

I'm going to investigate that. Also going to check why volumes are visible as "NO NAME" in the mount menu but then have a real name after being mounted and why there are entries with invalid characters in the mount menu when a USB mass storage device is inserted...

In fact the name wasn't incorrect. It was just what the FAT filesystem read directly from disk, where spaces are used to pad the fixed width label field. Still there was a bug where the name was reported differently to the disk device manager and to fs stat reads what resulted in a different name being visible in the mount menu and after mounting. Both is fixed in r25828. The strange characters in the mount menu I mentioned above were caused by outdated cdda and ntfs filesystem add-ons that still provided the old fs API but weren't removed on my installation (so that was no bug but my setup).

Thanks for fixing it. Now "no name" is displayed when listing the root directory.

However, a different problem is the color used, green and blue (I think), which makes the name of the directory totally unreadable!
