I am using Ubuntu 12.04 (dual os windows 7)

Now I have total 2 hard drives. 1st is a system hard drive and having two partitions another is 1tb my work hard drive with no partition.

My system hardrive partitions named with it's size like 157 GB Filesystem, 293 GB Filesystem` etc. I want to change this name.

enter image description here

I have tried using GParted but it doesn't shows that drive but only Works drive and DVD`

enter image description here

How to change these label? and if can't than how to access on terminal? because if use this

cd /157 GB Filesystem

It doesn't work.

  • Open Dash, and type Disks. For more info look at the second answer [here](http://askubuntu.com/questions/86724/how-do-i-open-the-disk-utility-in-the-unity-desktop-environment). – Mitch Feb 21 '14 at 15:32
  • This may also be helpful. [You can type spaces in a terminal command, they just need escape characters or quotes](http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=890726) – Mr.Lee Feb 21 '14 at 15:34
  • Okay I got it but now when I click on `Edit Partition` it is not allowing me to rename the label. It is disabled. Any permission issue? How to get permission – pixelngrain Feb 21 '14 at 15:34

You can't be able to rename a partition's label when it was mounted.

In your case it's /dev/sda1 ntfs partition which was already unmounted.So right-click on the partition and select Label.

Give the label name and apply it.
