groet@feddit.detoLinux@lemmy.ml•Why did distro name carry over into label name of my ssd?

6 months agoA drive label is just a string that can be set by any privileged process. Seems like this installation of the new distro didn’t do that. Or you skipped a step in the install where you could have chosen the drive label.
If it is a bug in the installer or if you missed it, I can’t tell.
But you can just change it in gparted or something else.
Can’t remember exactly what happened but it involved changing permissions on
/bin
/sbin
and similar. You know for security …In the end I didn’t have permissions to run
chmod
,su
orsudo
Fortunately there is little that can’t be fixed by booting from a live image.
