(regarding the annoyance of DVD mount point names containing embedded

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"

hang on here ... do you *know* for a *fact* that the above will work?
because i'm sure i tried that and it failed -- that's the only reason
that i got into that ugly detail on the wiki page.

if the above actually works, then i can simplify that page immensely.

Note that /media/"FU 20080204 8 x86_64 DVD" is not the same as /media/"FU\ 20080204\ 8\ x86_64\ DVD", but should be the same as /media/FU\ 20080204\ 8\ x86_64\ DVD. If you excape the spaces using the \, then you do NOT want the "s around the name. If you do, then the \s do not escape the space, but are used as is. SO you get
FU\ 20080204\ 8\ x86_64\ DVD
instead of
FU 20080204 8 x86_64 DVD
