I upgrade my fedora 10 to fedora 11 without any issues but I noticed that now when I insert a dvd or cd it will not mount it automatically. Previously when I used fedora 10 it worked like a charm not it will not mount it. I just want when I insert cd or dvd my fedora to mount it automatically.
I currently mount my smb shares by adding the appropriate line to fstab. Now my son also uses my laptop (F13 by the way) and I would also like to automount the shares for him but as a different user because there are some directories he should not have access to.
Currently I have a dual boot system it consists of Fedora 12 and Windows Vista, at this time when I am logged into fedora 12 I can select the windows vista partition in the f12 file manager, I am than prompted for the root password and after entering the password, the drive mounts as read/write with no problem. How can I automate this mounting process so once I login as a standard user the NTFS partition mounts without any input? I would like this to auto mount without prompting for a password or having to double click on the vista partition each time.
I was running ubuntu and windows 7 as dual boot, I taught of trying out fedora 13 and installed it. I faced some issues with grub, like it does not detected my ubuntu, so, I used my ubuntu live cd and restored my ubuntus grub. So, now I want to use the fedora grub. I cannot restore it. Can I get restoring the grub from fedora's live CD?
And, I am using gnome as desktop environment, when I go to places and click anyof my partitions, it asks me root password, I am little frustrated to give password of root every time I mount any-of the partitions. In my ubuntu, It doesn't need any root password, It just auto mounts the partitions. How do we do that?
My Fedora does not auto detect a flash drive if I get to attach it with the OS already running. I still have to make a reboot and attached the drive right from the start in order for it to be detected/mounted.
Unlike In Mint 7, Ubuntu and XP, it automatically detects the flash drive as soon as it is attached.
make my Fedora detect the flash drive so that I would not have to reboot everytime I would use it.
FWIW here are some outputs: Code: # /etc/fstab # Created by anaconda on Thu Feb 4 06:06:47 2010 # # Accessible filesystems, by reference, are maintained under '/dev/disk'
I installed Fedora 13. I edited my fstab to automount my NTFS-3g drive. It worked. Then I updated to Kernel 2.6.34.6-54.fc13.x86_64 It doesn't work any more.
On boot-up I get the following error (already showing in the login-page):
i am using fedora 14. Each time i login i have to manually mount my windows drives. Is there any script or system setting which will help me to auto mount my windows drive on startup.
I have edited my /etc/fstab file in order to have it automatically mount a windows network share at startup.
The problem is, that it isn't really working during startup. After I log in, in order to make it mount I have to open the terminal and enter "mount -a".
The following is my fstab file:
Code:
I suspect this has something to do with my laptop not having made a network connection when the entries are mounted, but I'm not sure. How would I go about finding out about any errors?
I have servers installed with RHEL 4 2.6.9-89.0.9 ELsmp. I tried using uuid and label in /etc/fstab to automount usb drives to mountpoints that I specify after reboot. Unfortunately, it just does not work in all my RHEL4 servers. After every reboot, /etc/fstab will be automatically modified and all configurations related to my USB drives will be changed. Irregardless of whether i use UUID or LABEL in my /etc/fstab.However, it works on RHEL5. But, upgrading is not an option in my environment. I have been googling around looking for alternatives but everything seems to point back to using UUID or LABEL in /etc/fstab. Anyone has tried something that works? Please help me, thank you.
Is there any way to specify what partitions of my USB Hard drive automount? There's really only one I want mounted automatically, and I've made three partitions. I'd like it so the one mounts, but the other 2 don't. Possible?

I recently formatted my memory stick in windows. It works properly in windows. I have a dual boot with ubuntu 10.04 and the usb automounts in read-only mode. I cannot write anything to the usb stick in ubuntu. sudo chomod does not work.
I'm running 64 bit Ubuntu, 11.04. When I first installed, I could plug in my USB thumb drive and it was automatically mounted for me. Lately, this no longer happens... I use the Disk Utility to mount it manually. What I did wrong to lose this automatic mounting?
I have a system that I want to auto mount a samba from another one. The issue is that they are both laptops so doing it by name is much much better than by ip. Unfortunately when I try to mount by name with this in my samba:

it works fine. The ip obviously is going to change depending on what network the two systems are on.
i'm working with x86 small computer having 128 ram and 233MHz speed in processor nd i'm going to do a project which need auto mounting of a pen drive if you can post a url that I can download those OS.
I'm using Red Hat in a work environment as the system that runs my Netbackup. My predecessor was using 1Tb Western Digital external HD's and they worked great but now were upgrading to 2Tb drives and I have to format them and make sure then work correctly.
I have been able to format them in Red Hat and they have worked with Netbackup however the only way I can get them mounted is by having them plugged in and then restarting the whole system. The older drives are completely plug and play.
Here are the steps that I have been following;
Then I set the file system type with;
Next I create the new filesystem on the drive with the command;
Then I finalize the format with;
Followed by a restart, which of course the drive comes up. But if I unmount the drive and remove it and then plug it back in nothing comes up. Trying to manually mount it doesn't come up with anything. I have attempted this with 3 different brand new Western Digital external HD's.
I've looked in the fstab and when I plug in the old hd's it comes up with the command to mount it. With the new one's its not there unless I do the complete system restart.
i did try to look for an open post for this, i found other items, but not exactly what i was looking for. i am not that o-fay with linux so you will have to bare with me.
firstly my disto. Version: 2.30.2 Distributor: Debian
I bought a new external HDD - a Seagate 2 TB (actually 1.8 TB) but am unable to mount it. The drive is USB 3.0 while the ports on my system are USB 2.0 but that is NOT the issue. I am able to see the HDD without an issue on the CLI. I am on Jessie 64-bit.

My question is why it does not automount. Also if I should try to manually mount it, how should I go about it ?
I got the disks pre-formatted in around 500 GB (or as close to it) multiples as can be seen.
The other question is why does /dev/sdb4 show some different dialog than the rest ?
I was using 11.3, everything worked fine Upgraded to 11.4, now no drives will automount. As a result applications like Nero and K3B cannot find my DVD drive. I can access the drives from an application like VLC where I can enter the device path /dev/dvd

I suspect there is a bug or incompatablitiy with HAL/dbus/udisks but I cannot track it down.
I'm currently setting up a laptop for my grandparents to use. They have never used a computer before, so I'm trying to make this as fool-proof as possible. The system will be setup with Ubuntu 10.10. In order to save them the hassle of having to unmount USB drives before disconnecting them, I would like to have all USB drives auto-mounted as read-only (possible use cases for now only include them getting data from people, not them copying anything to the drive). I have so far found that gnome-volume-manager is responsible for the handy auto-mount, but I didn't find any way to set options, like always mounting drives read-only.
