These values are just not set for MSDOS part tables, because that old stuff does not support it. That's how things work. We don't have any ext3 specific uuid properties, just because iso9660 does not have uuids. Also partition labels have zero in common with filesystem labels, they never had and never will. All seems fine how it is. Kay _______________________________________________ devkit-devel mailing list devkit-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/devkit-devel
