Syntax
Creates, changes, or deletes the volume label of a disk.
LABEL [drive:][label]
Examples
label a: mydisk
This would label the disk currently in the drive
to "mydisk", but will not label if your disk is write protected.
Possible issues
If your hard disk
label contains ASCII or other extended characters and you are running MS-DOS 6.0 or
lower if you run scandisk data or the entire hard disk drive can
become corrupt.
Because scandisk is
looking for corrupt or incorrect data, it is possible if the label
has ASCII or any unrecognized characters that it will attempt to fix
it. If scandisk attempts to fix your label it may remove all
information and place it into a CHK file.
If hard drive has
unrecognizable characters, unable to delete partition using fdisk.
Use label to recreate
the label and then use fdisk to delete the partition after label
created.
