Linux / UNIX: Find Volume Information From CDs and ISO Images

To find volume information from CDs and ISO images on a Linux or Unix system, you can use the blkid command.

The blkid command displays information about block devices, including the volume label, filesystem type, and UUID of the device.

Here is the general syntax for displaying volume information with blkid:

blkid device

Replace "device" with the name of the device, such as /dev/cdrom for a CD-ROM drive or /dev/loop0 for an ISO image mounted as a loop device.

For example, to display the volume information of a CD-ROM drive, you can use the following command:

blkid /dev/cdrom

This will display the volume label, filesystem type, and UUID of the CD-ROM.
