If it is the same then workflow is missing branch for labeling of
external hard disks without mounting the drive.

This is important for external hard disk drives that are usually mounted
dynamically, so there is no need to specify mount point in fstab.

Factory and 11.1 are not the same but there shouldn't be a change
like the one you describe. Please make a bug report (preferable
with the next 11.2 alpha) and describe the issue more accurate
(and don't forget the YaST logs).

Thanks for answer Arvin.

The issue is missing feature, as window that I've seen is classic YaST
Partitioner window that allows to edit partition.

I asked about Factory, just because the rest of the window is new design for
11.2. I installed factory few weeks ago and I can't remember details, but if
it is essentially same then changing label alone is missing since we have
dynamically loaded disks.

It happened that my old external drive has 2 partitions, one is labeled in
factory, the other that I created is not, which combined with USB sticks
makes hard to distinguish drives using Mindnight commander.

I'll add this to feature request that is already filed, if I can find it :-)

Seems like this could be of adding a comment to

But I'm not sure
