Still not a complete solution though, as if I allow all partitions to be 'volume.ignore=true' I have 3 linux distros + windows + data partitions that are shared for 15 partitions ( I think that would be a cluttered environment in the Computer Drawer!). Perhaps there could be a field entry in fstab and the mount command that would make each mounted partition show up as per the admin's desires?
