Subject: Problem mounting USB external drive
Date: Mon, 03 May 2004 05:09:14 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4095D3FA.8060606@cox.net> (raw)
I've got an external drive in a USB 2.0 enclosure that I would like to
have mounted when I plug it in. I'm running Fedora Core 1. I have
created an entry in /etc/updfstab.conf that successfully adds an entry
to the /etc/fstab and creates a mount point in /mnt. I can then mount
the drive from the CLI. Poking around the Fedora mailing list, the
answer to automated mounting seemed to lie in the
/etc/hotplug/usb/usb-storage script. I created the script and verified
that it was executed. However, updfstab does not seem to get run until
after usb-storage is completed. Hence, no automatic mount.
My question is this. What is the correct way within the hotplug
framework to get a hot-plugged drive to mount automatically?
If this is the wrong forum to ask this question, I apologize. Could
someone point me in the right direction to ask it.
Thanks!
Andrew Robinson
