Hello,

My question is regarding /etc/fstab synax.
How can I use spaces and quote symbols in my device name?
I tried to use double quotes and backslash, but no luck so far.
I.e. I'd like to put the following line:

/dev/msdosfs/MY FLASH /mnt/flash msdosfs rw,noauto 0 0

As far as I know, that cannot be done. I saw something about that
here awhile ago. Perhaps, a patch has been submitted that will modify
its behavior by now.
