Perhaps the name inside quotes?

"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.
