Bug Description

nautilus: Installed: 1:47~beta.1-1ubuntu1
In the old version of nautilus with 'Other Locations' I used to see the list of partitions in physical order with the label and the partition name. Now I only see the label and I don't have the partition name
and I have no way to find the partition name

see attached screenshot

Hello! This error also affected me. And by the way, it appears in all distributions Linux with Nautilus version 47.

@terza228 This is not an error, it is a design change.

A very BAD design change because now finding the partition name becomes VERY DIFFICULT.
Please explain how I can now obtain the same info I had before.

NO, this bug is about content of left panel: in left panel I see a list of partition labels sorted by label, partition label is just optional, not mandatory, if You don't put a label on your partitions the list of labels is completely meaningless and useless. A list of partition names sorted by volume-partition plus label would be much more useful.
We had a list of partition names plus labels when selecting 'Other Locations' so the code is ready.
The other bug is about the missing access to the root directory.
