I agree here. And more than that, all stuff is kept being mounted into

Would you believe /etc/fstab?


dear Bill, you are missing the point.
Whenever I plug my flashdrive/externel_hdd/mp3_player into usb port the
new mounting points created by fstab are
/media/lexar, /media/kingston, /media/depends_on_flashdive_manufacturer
/media/vfat, /media/linux, /media/depends_on_hdd_filesystem
/media/iriver, /media/iaudio_g3, /media/again_by_playertype_and_vendor

all this mounting points are naturally wiped out after the ums-device is
unplugged. Thus, if you notice the common thing for all of them is
/media directory the purpose of which (when there is /mnt) I'm not
getting at all. I would be glad if someone could explain it to me. But
the main point the whatever the reason is I dont need this directory on
my system and want to teach fstab-sync to not use it either. Now how to
do that?


Sorry, I hit the 'Send' button too quickly- what I was thinking was check /etc/fstab, and change the entries that start with /media to /mnt
