By this I mean, when you look at the mount name in computer, are there spaces in the name for the device that appears? If so, try this: 1. edit /etc/mtools.conf to create a drive for the device. For example, when I plug a USB key into my laptop it appears as /dev/sdb1, so in mtools.conf I have a line: drive f: file="/dev/sdb1" 2. at a terminal prompt run: $ mlabel <drive letter>:<new_label> eg. I ran: mlabel f:4GB_USB Make sure there are no spaces in the 'new_label' name. Then try again. R. -- "It's a fine line between denial and faith.
