OK, thank you for the information. If you want to,
you
can comment out line 999 of file tdehardwarebackend.cpp and see if the
TDEHWLib backend handles the same situation(two identical volume labels)
gracefully or not. If it does, that line of code can be removed from GIT.
I rebuilt tdelibs/tdebase 64-bit. I see what you did with the optical disk mount point
naming. Looks great to me, best of both worlds and satisfies all concerns. Fundamentally,
the previous scheme of appending a number is no different, but the new scheme actually is
nicer and saner. :-)
I plan to run a 32-bit package build set overnight but the final testing will be late
tomorrow at the earliest. The machine with two optical drives is a PII with an IDE hard
drive. V---e---r---y---s---l---o---w to install a full updated package set. :-)
I'll run the first test with line 999 as is. I should see something like this:
Slackware Install1 (hdb)
Slackware Install1 (hdc)
Or something similar.
Unless the old numerical appendage is in the tdehwbackend code, I'm curious to see
what happens with a package rebuilt with line 999 commented out. We'll see how that
goes tomorrow. :-)
