LM14 auto mount point
Posted: Wed Dec 05, 2012 9:41 am
Hi friends!
After a fresh installation of LM14 I note that inserting an USB disk or
mounting a partition by clicking on the triangle key near the name
in Nemo the mount point of this new area is /media/<username>/sdax.
So if my username is max, when I mount the internal partition sda1 I'll find it
under /media/max/sda1
The difference with previous LM version is the addition of the <username> part
on the mount point and that this mount point became property of the same user.
All well, all right... a point of view while making the distribution.
But I don't like the change of the mount point and return back adding some
lines in /etc/fstab:
/dev/sda1 /media/sda1 ...
Now all is ok for me, no problem at all.
I think that the job of the mount point name construction is done by udev
but I don't find anything usefull investigating the /lib/udev/rules.d, also
using "udevadm test /block/sda/sda1" doesn't permit to find the point where
there is the association of the mount point with the username.
Is there someone that can help me in understanding better this particular way
of auto mounting a disk/partition?
Thank you
