They use udisks2. Which is notorious for automount problems. I can't uninstall it because trinity is dependant on it. I know how to edit the fstab, but would rather not. It's also not going to help because it's rarely the same drive twice. This becomes a problem when/because I'm working on client drive data recovery. I appreciate the help though, Thank you Jimmy Kate --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
