#207310 — GPT partions: capability for user friendly labels on partitions for all OSs?

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

I run dual boot Deb/Win 10 on several systems, only one of which has UEFI
capability (the latest, new as of last fall). Unfortunately, I failed to
use the GPT on the new one, and the Win 10 disk management program doesn't
show much info on the non-NTFS disks.

Does GPT partitioning on Windows 10 allow a user-friendly label along with
its UUID for a partition?

If so, is that label visible with Debian system administration programs as
well?

Thanks very much.

Warm regards,

-Tom

Why do you care ? You can manage it in Debian.

I care because my main Win box stays running Win most of the time
(it's the default) and it not always convenient to reboot.

Thanks, Pascal.

Should be equivalent with Win10 and Debian to MacOS and openSUSE:
