Hello.
I use Centos 4.1 When I inserted my usb 2.0 disk for the first time it created the mount point /media/usbdisk just fine. Which I used to mount the disk. But as soon as I used it in another computer (winxp) when I took the usb back to centos the mount point had become /media/IOMEGA (yeah it's an iomega driver) but then as time goes by, the mount point every time the disk is used else where the mount point changes from /media/___________ to whatever other garble you can think of.... Now Executing a mount /media/_what_ever_is_today_ will mount the usb disk just fine without any problems.
Why does the mount point changes so erratically???

Sounds like the volume label is being rewritten by other OSes.
