I did experiemnt with two USB sticks with the same volume name. Names are modified as expected, two mount points created, "USB DISK" and "USB DISK-1"
# mount | grep sd[ab] /dev/sda1 on /media/USB DISK type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=077,iocharset=utf8) /dev/sdb1 on /media/USB DISK-1 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=077,iocharset=utf8) What a suprise? ;-) -- USB disk is automount to "/media/USB DISK" mount point https://launchpad.net/bugs/54536 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
