There are two issues being discussed in this thread: 1. "My scripts/environment will break now that media is no longer found in /media/MYFOO" Here, I agree with the current Fedora 17 implementation, and I feel that the short-term pain of migration said scripts/environments is worth the long-term gain of having a really per-user mount. No argument there, so let's drop it from this subthread. 2. "I have a plugged-in USB disk and I am at the physical console however I need to find the name of my USB disk in the folder list and click on it before I can use any files on it" This is what I personally object to, and I suspect Jonathan does as well. It is a) inconsistent with other operating systems, at least Windows and Mac OS X. b) inconsistent with previous Fedora releases c) not by any means more secure for multi users since you need physical access to the machine to plug in a USB stick / insert a CD anyway So what are the real reasons for behavioural aspect #2, and was this design tested on users? Where is the rationale? Regards, --Stijn -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
