That's true, but I wasn't at the point to deal with this, yet :-)

How do I do this? I'm a bit confused because the documentation does not seem 
to be up to the code and it mainly refers to DVDs, which have to be treated 
differently than removable hard drives.

I know that I can use fstab-sync to automatically mount any partition on a 
hot-plug device to a unique mount point, but how does this integrate with 
Bacula?
