Hi list
Fresh install of F7. I just plugged in two different USB external hard rives and none of them were auto mounted. Both drives are IDE drives in external USB enclosures. One is a laptop drive and the enclosure gets its power from the USB socket, the other is standard size drive and the enclosure has its own power supply. Any ideas?

This is determined by /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/99-redhat-storage-policy-fixed-drives.fdi. You can either edit it or just move it out of that location and auto mounting would work.

It has been done as a security measure but policy kit in Fedora 8 should make this much more usable. There is a recent discussion in fedora-devel list about this FYI.
