Comment 3 for bug 1079185

I'm really no expert in command line in linux, but this command above
gives me the label of the drive.

If i skip the 'head -1',

this is what i get :

thibault@panda12-10:~$ sudo blkid -o value $(mount | grep "on /${1%/}
" | tail -n1 | cut -d' ' -f1)
ubuntu2
9888f422-c54a-418e-884f-8e9b26aacd2a
ext2
