Problem with setting disk label

So I have a disk which I want to name "fusioDisk"

Using both "label set [side] [name]" on all different sides and "disk.setLabel([side], [name])" again on all sides and via the lua interpreter and via a program I have been unable to set the label on a disk.

What I mean by "unable" is that, I get no errors, when I use "label get [side]" and "disk.getLabel([side])" I get told the disk is labeled as "fusioDisk".

But when I mouse over the disk in the drive and in my inventory I only see "floppy disk", am I doing something wrong here and has anyone else experienced a similar problem?

All help is much appreciated, cheers.

If you're on a server, especially a Tekkit one, labels may be glitchy and take a while to update. Try dropping it then picking it up again and see if that helps.

I'm playing on Feed The Beast, and that didn't decide to work, so I installed ComputerCraft on it's own manually and it worked instantly, so I'm going to assume that it's some sort of mod conflict or something like that.

Thanks for your help!

I have the same problem.
With "label get .." the correct label is shown but in my inventory the disk shows only "Floppy Disk" when I mouseover it.

What version of MinecraftForge were you using compared to Feed the Beast pack?
