On mine (as my regular user) it creates the device, the mount point, and automounts it so I can browse using nautilus in gnome. It does not put an entry is fstab. I can manually unmount it, or remount it at will. However, using the desktop menu to unmount it also removes the mount point, so I have to either manually recreate the mount point or use an existing mount point after unmounting via the menu. > -- > Bill Gradwohl > bill@xxxxxxx > http://www.ycc.com > spamSTOMPER Protected email >
