I've thought that for a long time. Mounting my own "personal mount" on |
28 |
a system directory never made any sense to me. However, /run/media is |
29 |
still a system directory, so it still doesn't make any sense to me. |

|
31 |
I think /home/wa1ter/media is a more logical choice. But I'm not doing |
32 |
the coding in this bazaar ;) |

The upstream dev(s) seem intent on mounting removable media on a tempfs |
35 |
for some reason. Do you know why? |
36 |
|
37 |
I understand completely the reason for inventing /run and making it a |
38 |
tempfs (I think Lennart *was* involved in that), but why use /run when |
39 |
it's not necessary or (IMHO) logical? |
