I use this for example: UUID=6cb66da2-147a-4f3c-a513-36f6164ab581 /raid ext4 rw,noauto,user 1 1 and the mount happens automatically when the device is plugged in. > This in OK! (this is working) !

How does the system know to unmount the drive unless you tell it? There are some ways to handle putting disks into standby mode after a timeout (see udisks(8)) but it's not clear if they'll work with USB devices. In my case, I just explicitly unmount the drive within the backup script. I don't know if there's really a better way to do it. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
