>Anyone, >Can anyone explain why the switch to /media instead of /mnt >In my mind, media is something you put into a device to read or write, >/mnt contains mount points where devices can be mounted to access media. >Am I just not getting the logic behind the /media change? /media is a recent addition to the File Hierarchy System (Standard?) which describes which directory does what. /mnt was for temporary, non-formatted systems, such as tape drives. /media is for devices which are expected to be formatted with their own file system, such as floppy drives, external hard drives, cdrom/dvd-rom, etc. James McKenzie A Proud User of Linux!
