Tool for changing label of a swap partition?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello all,

While adding support for labels of swap partitions to DeviceKit-disks
[1] we noticed that there seems to be no way to change the label of a
swap partition. For unmounted swaps one could of course just mkswap -L
again, but I wouldn't like to put this into DK-D as "change label",
since this would potentially destroy hibernation images (or does it
detect that?).

Do you plan to add a tool to do that?

Thanks,

Martin
