Rick,
Yes it exists. It was auto mounting for 3 years with the old OS's
(EL4 and EL5)
using fstab
Different beasties than F10. EL5 is based on FC6, that's why I asked.
Question: If you try a manual mount, does it work? E.g.:
# mkdir /mnt/test
# mount -t ext2 /dev/sdc1 /mnt/test
Rick,
I did that. in fact that is my current workaround is to manually mount it
with
mount -t ext2 /dev/sdc1 /media/usbdisk.
Yes EL5 is a different beast. I have two f8 upgraded before the server
to f10
workstations and a f10 laptop running on my home network with ldap login
and nfs
shared home mounts. I wanted to go to f10 to get the new user features
but the
server is giving me these minor problems.
Hmmm, I wonder if the ext2 module has different defaults or if some
Ubuntu-ness (e.g. not setting the clock to UTC before fscking) has crept
into F10 somehow (now that'd be evil!).
If you add "nocheck" to the mount options in /etc/fstab, does it work on
a reboot?
To test for this date thing, you might try deleting the "nocheck" option
in /etc/fstab (if you tried it) and creating an /etc/e2fsck.conf file
containing:
[options]
buggy_init_scripts = true
and try YAR (yet another reboot).
These are just wild guesses. I'm booting an F10 machine with a couple
of USB drives on it and it works just fine. Granted, the drives are ext3:
/dev/sdc1 on /media/500GB-Drive type ext3
(rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal)
/dev/sdb1 on /media/CD-DVD-Images type ext3
(rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal)
and they're not in my /etc/fstab...I'm letting udev/HAL mount them as
this is a workstation running at run level 5 (GUI and all that).
