/I have an USB WD Mybook with data stored on it but it is at
/run/media/bobg/bbdb9a5e-5003-4d4e-a18c-fb30a2488d98 /media/mybk
I would like to change that long name to something shorter like 'mybk"
but I don't know how and I don't want to make a mistake and render it
inaccessible. Can that be done and what is the command for changing the
name? Bob

I believe that gets generated at mount since the device UUID in embedded in
the path

Ok, that was a clue, I had mounted it using the long "name" in my Thunar
file manager. I unmounted that and foune that it was also listed in
"mount" as /dev/sdc. That mounts: mount /dev/sdc /media/mybook' which
is what I wanted to do at the outset of my exercise.
Thanks, Bob

You can always create a symbolic link to it
and place the link and call the link whatever
you want

Yes, I saw that in a google search, I also tried mount --bind which
worked.

I think that e2label or fatlabel will do what you want.
