  Thanks for the tip! I recently had a bad experience when
  I didn't take this to heart after changing the external 
  SD data to a new medium and then various programs stopped
  working because they were expecting their data on an 
  SD card with the old label.

  Maybe I can change the label now, but first I have to find
  out what the old one was ...
