How can I change the volume name of a FAT32 filesystem?
I know I can set the volume name when I format the partition
with the
-n
option of mkfs.vfat
.
But how to just change the name without formatting?
I especially want to be able to use lower and uppercase letters.
In worst case, I can use a Windows tool, but Windows by default transforms all letters to uppercase (but works fine with lowercase letters in volumes created with mkfs.vfat
).
