Package: debian-installer
Version: 20121114
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainers,
While installing Wheezy b4 from USB drive, debian-installer (I think)
adds a line to /etc/fstab:
/dev/sdb1 /media/usb0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
The existence of this line, specifically the 'user' option (I think),
prevents mounting of NTFS filesystems by ntfs-3g, which results
in a standard ntfs-3g error:
"""Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:
Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the
external FUSE library. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild
NTFS-3G with integrated FUSE support and make it setuid root.
Please see more information at
http://tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-faq/#unprivileged""";
Reported are other USB mounting issues as well:
https://www.google.com/search?q=(debian+OR+ubuntu)+mount+usb0+(ntfs+OR+"")+/etc/fstab
The fix is to comment-out or delete the fstab line and let the
automounting be done by udev, which is part of base install anyway.

thanks
Hi,
thank you for submitting bug reports concering debian-installer, much
appreciated.
I read through all the bugs mentioned here (and I'm sure they were read by
several people at the time they were submitted) and am closing them now as/if
- they (finally) indicated success and/or
- I know from first hand experience that the functionality is working in
Wheezy and/or
- they only contained very little information and/or
- they contained user errors and/or
- they have been from a development phase where things were not stable and/or
- they are very old and/or
- they are wishlist but rather special + exotic and not have been acted on for
years. (See http://blog.liw.fi/posts/wishlist-bugs/ why it's often useful to
close wishlist bugs.)
If I've closed a bug incorrectly please do reply (it's easy to reopen and I'll
do if requested) or just file a new one - and that's often better, as the bug
log will be clearer and shorter and not contain cruft.
cheers,
Holger
