I think that it is a bug.... I asked this question some time ago and had
no answer!

After a lot of googleing I came accross a solution, but first: have you
a file:

/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules
(Maybe, with another number).

If not, create one, using the command:

udevtest /sys/block/sr0


Then, normally, you have this "persistent-cd-rules" file

Reboot and see if you can automount your disks.

(With this file, the links must be "persistent", ie. they are not erased
when you insert a disk.)


I posted this solution some times ago on this list, but someone answered
that if this has been removed from f12, there were certainly a good
reason why and that I could have many side effects if I added it now!

I have absolutely no problem up to now and problem is solved for me.
Hope it will be the same for you.

Hope too that someone gives a good reason for suppressing this file in f12.
