     Nope, but I found out what I thought was a directory is in fact a 
name added while you format the USB memory. How that odd name got there 
is anyones guess but here is what it is now:

karl at Lucid:/media$ ls
Linux-ext4
karl at Lucid:/media$

Now it LOOKS like a label which it is. I will now fix all others the 
same way. Thanks for the help and it has now been good!
