Another drive problem [solved]

[Des Kinsman]

I have a flash drive for my camera sdb1.

I would prefer the drive to mount when I insert the card.....at the moment it mounts when booted.

Can anyone please help.

 

/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1

/dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0

/dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom2 auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0

/dev/hda1 /mnt/win_c ntfs umask=0,nls=iso8859-15,ro 0 0

none /proc proc defaults 0 0

/dev/sda1 /mnt/sharedrive vfat exec,users,rw,umask=000 0 0

/dev/hda2/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap defaults 0 0

/dev/sdb1 /mnt/removable vfat pamconsole,exec,noauto,noatime,codepage=850,iocharset=iso8859-15,managed 0 0

Is the HardDrake service enabled and running? I have problems with devices not mounting automatically when this service is disabled:

 

[root@europa ian]# chkconfig --list harddrake
harddrake	   0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on	4:on	5:on	6:off

 

note the "on" against runlevels 3 and 5 being the most important. To turn it on just type:

 

chkconfig harddrake on

 

and reboot and see if that does the trick. You could manually start the service to save rebooting with:

 

service harddrake start

 

and see if it automatically mounts then, if not you'd need a reboot. I'm pretty sure just starting the service didn't work for me and I had to reboot.

Thank you Ian
