"The disk name goes here" In GNOME the DVD name displayed in the GUI named 'Computer' and on the Desktop is: "FU 20080204 8 x86_64 DVD" In a terminal window in X it is: /media/"FU 20080204 8 x86_64 DVD" Notice both contain the spaces and the quotes. However when viewed at level init 3 the name is: /media/"FU\ 20080204\ 8\ x86_64\ DVD" This DVD, BTW, is the Feb 4, 2000 Fedora-Unity jigdo updated / made from the Dec Fedora-Unity jigdo DVD that was updated / made from the original release Fedora-8-x86_64-DVD downloaded with ftp Nov 3, 2007. I have also done the i386 DVD and both the i386 and x86_64 CD sets as an experiment. I gave them to friends. So this does work. IMO it is simple to do and it works quite well actually. - -- ~ David -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (MingW32) iEYEARECAAYFAke62tUACgkQAO0wNI1X4QEgcwCglV2jHQ+eRycI2miffOzQcgf0 nJoAn0lQEMyncqCsMHidMSnZjJVvJsFf =VHBl -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
