Debian :: Automatic Mount Of Removable Devices
Oct 27, 2015I 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
[code]....
Is this safe and correct approach or it is better to use something else?

May 26, 2009I want the following behavior in kubuntu 9.04 when I plug a device (USB stick or CD disk):
1. It should be mounted automatically for me. Now it isn't, though it appears in fdisk -l output: Code: Disk /dev/sdd: 8006 MB, 8006926336 bytes
16 heads, 32 sectors/track, 30544 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 512 * 512 = 262144 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x9b12d290
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdd1 * 16 30544 7815232 b W95 FAT32 and if I mount it manually, all goes OK
2. If I mount manually my CD disk and then press the eject button on my drive nothing happens until I manually unmount the drive. But I want it to open immediately
All this worked for me in kubuntu 8.10, and broke with the upgrade.
My fstab entries Code: /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0

Ubuntu Networking :: Samba Share Listed Twice Under 'Removable Devices'
Jan 8, 2010Since upgrading to Karmic, all my shares under 'Removable Devices' are listed twice...all was fine in Jaunty though, and I've done nothing to change them.Would anyone have an idea how to resolve this.In terms of what I see, there are all my shares with a white drive icon which, when clicked, do nothing. I then have all the same shares with a metal drive icon which open up the share when clicked.
I understand that the icons may look different, depending on what icon theme you're using, but the principal will remain the same.
Debian :: Removable Devices Auto-mounted As Read-only?
May 29, 2010Quote:
Currently when I insert a removable device, it is auto-mounted as readonly. To use it I have to do this every time.
Code:

This applys to every removable device I have, and did not exist on my previous distro. Debian amd 64 Squeeze [URL]

Ubuntu :: Mount Point For External Hard Disk?
Jan 11, 2010I have just updated to karmic, and I found that my external hard disk partitions, previously mounted under /media/disk and /media/fat are now referenced by something looking like a UUID, namely /media/7b096ea4-60ee-46b1-95cd-1851b051c40d and /media/4951-95D9.
Is there a way to revert to the old settings? Any application relying on the files on the external hard disk has now stopped working. While I certainly could just change reference (assuming the UUID does not change every session), I'd rather use the old names if possible.

View 1 Replies View RelatedDebian Hardware :: Cannot Mount Second Hard Disk
Feb 21, 2016I am running Debian testing (amd64, xfce) on my box where I have two sata hard disks.
I do not have any raid or fancy stuff; all the OS is on one hard disk and the second is mounted on boot and accessible as simple extra storage that I use for some backups.
Today, for the first time, I started to get some messages during the boot about some process (EMASK and DRDY) on my second hard disk.
The system boots, but I cannot access any more the 3 TB volume which is my second hard hard disk.
I do not know if it is a software of hardware problem (the hard disk are not old at all), so...where should I start from?

OpenSUSE Install :: Mount With NFS An USB Hard Disk?
Jul 5, 2011I've used YAST to include a USB hard disk in the export list and mount it to remote machine with NFS. That worked first time the disk was mounted. On the next reboot I saw that the USB disk was mounted again in "/media" but in new folder and its previous folder existed but empty and was mounted with nfs. It seems that first nfs comes mounted in booting time and then USB gets mounted after logging as a user. USB hard disk finds its folder occupied and automatically creates new folder in "/media". What should be done in order to USB hard disk and nfs to be mounted in the same point automatically on the boot ? The second question : When I mount an external disk to be accessible remotely with nfs I get refused to unmount the disk as a USB device. Is it possible to be unmounted as a USB disk done without unmounting it as a nfs as well?

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Hard Disk Needs No Password In Order To Mount / Firefox Can't Start
Apr 30, 2010well yesterday I upgraded my karmic to lynx. So far so good, overall much improved plus I love the new theme. Now the problem, I share my Firefox/Thunderbird profile (stored in my secondary HD) with WinXP (dual boot box). Since karmic, before I opened Firefox/Thunderbird, I had to mount the 2ndary HD which of course prompted me for a password and then everything worked fine. In case I forgot to mount the disk then Firefox popped the following msg: Firefox is either opened or in use.Now, lucid strangely mounts my HD without a password, more peculiarly I have r-w-e permissions and on top of that Firefox/Thunderbird gives me the silly msg!
Tried to unmount/mount back but still no password. I end up believing that this Firefox hesitation to start (based on karmic experience) is related with the password thing...or not?
Ubuntu :: Can't Mount Removable Media: "failed To Execute Child Process Exo-mount"
May 18, 2011I just upgraded Xubuntu from 10.04 LTS to 11.04 and I am no longer able to mount removable media from the "places" menu. The message I get:
"Failed to execute child process exo-mount (No such file or directory)"
I assume some wrapper process is attempting to execute a program called "exo-mount," but no such program exists anywhere in the repositories, according to a search with apt-file. The "exo-utils" package used to contain exo-mount, but the program no longer exists in that package.
Mounting from within Thunar works fine.
Ubuntu :: Removable Disk Permissions?

When I use sudo rm -rf to delete files, everything works, but when I try to write something to the drive, all the files are skipped.
