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. - -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)1 4286 2145 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAku7m20ACgkQdE6C2dhV2JUmnACcC1/PJeTJhk3TBmIqX2Mnuyo0 v0IAnjGixSCqEZE2/c1o/M8oLUVTFnSg =uL1J -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
