I agree with this suggestion as it will help new users understand which partition they are working on. I also agree with what has built up from this request to detect other filesystems and perhaps the operating systems installed on them.

I think different ubuntu partitions (installations) should all have an ubuntu emblem. The one currently running, in other words "Filesystem" should have a *distinct* ubuntu symbol, symbolizing that it is the running system drive.

I like the icon proposed for windows drives/installations, but will this actually detect a system presence or will it simply put that icon on any NTFS/FAT partition?

Also, for people using a dual boot mac, perhaps we should put together an icon for when those drives or filesystems are detected.

I agree with putting a tux symbol on any other detected installed distros (or if using filesystem detection, ext2,3,4) than ubuntu.
