Hi,

while checking my TimeMachine Backup today (I continued the backup from my old mac), I noticed, that the Macintosh HD - Data partition on my new mac is named "Macintosh HD - Data" (in englisch), on all my other Macs it is named "Macintosh HD - Daten" (in German). The mountpoint is always /System/Volumes/Data,

I wonder, why the partition name is not translated on the new mac (maybe because the other ones are at least 2 years old and not originally delivered with Catalina installed) and, more importand, if this could cause any problems in the future.

Really annoying is, that TimeMachine copied all files of the new Macs data volume to the backup, even though most off them where already present, just under the German name...


Thanks for your help!
