Hi, |
| 2 |

I try to install udev/hal/pmount in such a way that my usb devices are |
| 4 |
automounted. But not with a changable name in the media folder, but with a |
| 5 |
fixed name like /mnt/camera (or /media/camera.. whatever. As long as it's the |
| 6 |
same every time..) |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
At this moment most things work, but when I add the mountpoints to fstab |
| 9 |
things go wrong. kde pops up a window and an error "permission denied". The |
| 10 |
later is understandable as it seems to try to open a mount in the media dir |
| 11 |
which doesn't exists instead of the mount point as given in the fstab. |
| 12 |
Regretfully the /mnt/camera isn't mounted either. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
So adding a line to the fstab file just screws up the system as it seems. |
| 15 |
Removing it leaves me with changable names in the media folder (/media/disk, |
| 16 |
media/disk-1, depending on what's happening.. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
So I see two sollutions: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
- Or the mediamanager whould open the path as givien in the fstab (but where |
| 21 |
do I tell it to do so?) |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
- Or I should be able to give the pmount a label (the second parameter) so it |
| 24 |
creates a /media/<label>. But again.. where can I do this. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
The main reason that I want a fixed name is for programs like digikam which |
| 27 |
expects such a path for importing images. Besides, on of the howtos |
| 28 |
suggested that using the fstab should work. So why doesn't it.. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Anybody a suggestion? |
