[Bug 46536] Re: USB HDD FAT32 partition without label doesn't mount

It's due to the pretty stange label on /dev/sda1:

  volume.label = 'BODY> 
  </HT'  (string)

I'll fix pmount-hal to replace slashes in the device label with another
character (underscore, perhaps). In the meantime, you can change the
label of the first partition (under Windows, perhaps, since there is
unfortunately no tool in Linux to change the label of a FAT partition).

** Changed in: gnome-volume-manager (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: gnome-volume-manager => pmount
       Status: Needs Info => Confirmed

** Summary changed:

- USB HDD FAT32 partition without label doesn't mount
+ pmount-hal: replace slashes in labels
