Something very strange has happened. For some reason when I plug in a USB device into my F12 rig up pops a error saying,Code: Unable to mount <name of device> file systemNot Authorised When I try to mount from the CLI I get, Code: mount: can't find /dev/sdb1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mstab I'm not really sure what this is telling me or what I need to do to fix it.

One question: should F13 mount all attached USB devices after boot automatically? I guess it should. However, what I've experienced is that after boot and login, my USB modem + flash memory is not mounted. I need to manually unplug it and plug it again, and then it's mounted
View 1 Replies View RelatedUsing Fedora 15 64 bit. The problem is when I put in a USB stick (directly into USB port front or back), or SD memory card via Card reader, they take a long time to auto mount. About 30 seconds. I've tried a few different USB sticks and memory cards. Once mounted they work fine. This is a new install, been running for a few weeks, but the problem only seems to have started in the last few days. Also, not sure if it's related, but now Shotwell takes about 30 seconds to start. The screen comes up, but the interface in non responsive for around 30 seconds. Both USB and Shotwell problems seem to have started at the same time.

This is great but I would like to change the mount point to just "/media/ipod/" as it easier to use with gnupod (command driven ipod access oh yes!!) I've had a look around and I know how to mount devices but I'm at a lose as to how things in fedora are automatically mounted... I use gnome so from what I've read hal, dbus, and udev yeah? but I'm not sure what configuration files need to be changed. At the moment I'm just wanting to change the ipods mount point but I would like know more so any technical how-to or articles, or things to look at (I'm thinking X), to understand auto mounting would be nice too.

If the usb is in place at startup, however, it is recognized and mounted.The media will show up in fdisk and disk utility, but there is no link to it in Places > Computer.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an Acer Aspire 3500 laptop that I'm running 10.04 on, pretty much everything works OK, and I don't appear to have any hardware problems (I've checked using Gnome Device Manager). When I plug in a USB flash or hard drive, I don't get any drives/devices to mount, although in Gnome Device Manager the USB device appears as a USB Mass Storage Device.

This is a 'clean' upgrade from slack 13.0 to 13.1 (32-bit)To qualify: / , /home , and /usr/local are on separate partitionsand / was reformatted.When I attempt to mount a removable device - USB stick or DVD, I get the following error message:

I use Debian 8.2 without DE. I can mount removable devices (USB sticks, external HDDs) manually using mount/umount to specific folders under /mnt or /media. But I want them mount automatically when plugged-in as /media/disk-label. Also I want to be able safely remove already mounted devices without data loss.As I understand, I need to create custom UDEV rule and associate it with mount/umount scripts. E.g. mount script
Code: Select all#!/bin/sh
mount_point=$ID_FS_LABEL
if [ -z $mount_point ]; then
mount_point=${DEVNAME##*/}
fi
# retrieve gid of the plugdev group and set it as owner of mountpoint
plugdev_gid="$(grep plugdev /etc/group|cut -f3 -d:)"
if [ -z $plugdev_gid ]; then

Is this safe and correct approach or it is better to use something else?
I would like to create a logon script, for specific user, under ssh connection, to backup several directories in a USB device; this backup will run when the device was plugged in and the user logs in server. My knowledge of linux isn't very deeply now, and some questions are in my head. I would like to make this in a chroot jail, and the user log in through ssh connection doesn't have to make nothing, the logon script will mount the USB device and make the backup (using rsync or whatever), and exit the ssh connection when it finish.
But the questions are:
- is possible to a user in a chroot jail mount a USB device?
- from this jail, the directories outside of the jail could be available or need to be bind or something for this task?
- it will be better to "jail" all the directories to backup, inside de chroot path (almost would be samba sharing for Windows clients)?
I was wondering if you can 'share' devices in Linux by overlaying the devices nodes? For instance, is it possible to use SSH (FS) + bind to selectively bind devices locally?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAfter upgrading to Lucid 10.4, I find that after booting I can no-longer auto-mount any USB drive when they are plugged in. They simply doesn't appear on the desktop as they did. Swap my PATA drive back to the one with 9.10 still installed on it is well.However, if I have USB drives plugged in before boot, they appears on the desktop, but are not auto-mounted as previously. Also when I click on any drive icon for the first time there is no response. Try again (on any drive) an the devices will all auto-mount revealing their contents in the window that subsequently opens. Everything them seems fine. I can unmount and remount at my leisure with any number of devices.
I do not have the problem of root only access that others have mentioned. I have played with usbmount and pmount as others have suggested, to no avail. They have both been removed.I have the HAL installed as default, and have already ecked media_automount_open for Nautilus on the gconf-editor.Disabling the floppy in the BIOS has not effect and I do not use autologin option.With (say) two USB drives attached, whether the devices are recognised at boot or not after boot,lsusb reveals:
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

I have many flash drives, memory sticks, card reader, and 2 mybook 1tb so i am constanly plugging in, or unplugging devices from my machine running the latest version of ubuntu (i beleive 10.04?). I remember when i use to connect a device it would mount and work right off the bat. but now, everytime i connect anything, i have to go through Disk Utility to select the drive and mount it (also unmount before disconnect). Another problem is that some times disk utility doesnt like to work (as with a few other programs). This happends every now and then and im not sure if its my systems hardware or this version of ubuntu. every now and then programs like to stop responding (turn grey) and some programs like disk utility will open up, but just be blank and not show the detected devices

Ubuntu 9.10. I have a problem - when I mount other partitions of my hdd or the system automounts usb disks these are mounted in /media directory with permissions 0700. So there are two problems there:
- When I switch user on my desktop to another that user can't read data from the usb disks
- I can't share data through network because smbd doesnot have read permissions on the created mount points
I think editing /etc/fstab is wrong way, there would be more right way to change permissions on mount point. I tried to change/add parameters umask, allow_other in gconf-editor (/system/storage/default_options, subsections vfat and ntfs-3g) but that does not show any results. Article [URL] recommends Open Places → Computer. Every volume except the generic File system one should have a Drive and Volume tab in its properties dialog where you can set mount options. But I did not find those tabs. Where should I set option to mount usb disks with permissions rwx for every user of my system?
Booting to CentOS 5.5 works and I am able to login with all my devices mounted. When I boot from the install DVD and type "linux rescue" I eventually get the message, after attempting to have one of the screens mount my partitions in read/write mode:
"An error occurred trying to mount some or all of your system. Some of it may be mounted under /mnt/sysimage." But nothing appears mounted under /mnt/sysimage. Should I try mounting my CentOS 5.5 partitions manually at this point ?
I have a non-super user on my box which I'd like to give it MOUNT and UMOUNT permissions but I don't know how.For example purposes, the user name is "USER".I don't want to make it into a SuperUser, just give it rights to be able to issue the MOUNT and UMOUNT commands at the terminal.
View 6 Replies View Relatedi am trying to prevent Gnome from automounting my NTFS partition. Gnome uses for this package gvfs-mount. This package with other small one's is respnsible for automounting USB changeable media like USB sticks. That works fine for me. But I don't want Gnome mount my NTFS partition on my internal storage device, where Debian Squeeze is installed too. Since Squeeze Gnome works with gvfs-mount to bind smb, ftp NTFS in. For binding a whole NTFS partition I am guessing Gnome use ntfs-3g as well. But I don't know exactly. Is there any possibility to adjust Gnome to automatically mount ONLY USB devices?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a server and noticed that the to RAID5 setup is showing 4 Raid devices but only 3 Total devices. It's on a fully updated CentOS 5 system that only has three SATA drives, as it can not hold anymore. I've done some researching but am unable to remove the fourth device, which is listed as removed. The full output of `mdadm -D /dev/md2` can be see below. I've never run into this situation before.Anyone have any pointers on how I can reduced the Raid Devices from 4 to 3? I have tried
mdadm /dev/md2 -r failed
mdadm /dev/md2 -r detached

After the usual mild annoyances inseparable from a Fedora release (installation from the LiveCD worked OK, but generated a requirement for 162MB of day-one updates, followed by something like 150MB of downloads to install OpenOffice - which comes as standard with Ubuntu/Mint/Mandriva and, no doubt, many other distros) I have been able to get the system working reasonably well. If there are major performance gains from the use of ext4, I have been unable to detect them. However, the only really frustrating issue from my perspective has been the difficulty in getting my two printers (both of which worked straight out of the box in the other distros mentioned above) to actually print. The devices in question are a Brother 2140 laser printer and an HP 2280 multi-function inkjet.
Both of these devices were properly recognised by the system, but neither would actually print (there were some initial signs that action was imminent, but no result - the printing processes were finally shown as having been stopped). I removed both printers, and started from scratch. The laser printer could not be persuaded to work, either with the recommended 2170 driver or the old faithful 2060-gutenprint driver. However, when I tried to add the HP, the printer utility advised that I needed to install "hpijs" before proceeding. This I duly did, and the HP 2280 then worked fine. On the basis that my only aim was to get the printers working, I decided to ignore the recommended drivers for the Brother 2140, and select the "2060-hpijs" version. This worked fine, and others may like to try this workaround.
