Change Output Volume Name

[dropkick888]

Is there a way to change to the volume name of the output image, since the output volume is read-only?

Thanks

I’m fairly sure that changing the volume name after the image is created requires you to convert it to a read-write image first. Changing it at creation time is as simple as using the -n argument with the desired volume name.

Blake,
I appreciate the response, where is the script and to what command would I add the argument?

Thanks

If you’re talking about the output volume (the name of the volume when it’s deployed), then it’s:

sudo ./instadmg.bash -n “Macintosh HD”

If you’re talking about the output name of the .dmg file, then it’s:

sudo ./instadmg.bash -m “myimage.dmg”

Hope that helps,
Jason
