说明
mlabel adds, displays, or removes volume labels on MS-DOS FAT and VFAT filesystems. When invoked without options, it displays the current label and prompts for a new one. Volume labels are limited to 11 single-byte characters. The tool validates and adjusts labels to ensure MS-DOS compatibility. An empty label input (pressing return at prompt) deletes the existing label. mlabel is part of the mtools package, which provides utilities for accessing MS-DOS filesystems from Unix/Linux without mounting.
