I'm getting two icons for my common data partition, one functional and one empty that gives errors if accidentally clicked. I see this problem in nemo, and in save dialogs. What am I doing wrong here?

Entry in /etc/fstab for this partition:
# /dev/sda8 my common data partition
UUID=3F3D-F6F9 /media/DATA vfat umask=0000,uid=1000,gid=1000,auto,rw,users

What happens when you:

** Unmount the partition:

Code: Select all

sudo umount /media/DATA

** Change the line to this:

Code: Select all

/dev/disk/by-uuid/3F3D-F6F9 /media/DATA vfat umask=0000,uid=1000,gid=1000,auto,rw,users

** And then remount with a:

Code: Select all

sudo mount -a

It's an old bug that defies fixing: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... bug/442130
