I want to activate the Automount for a USB pen drive ( also an iopd shuffle ) using Gnome on a Sarge system with a stock 2.6.8-2-k7 kernel. I'm looking for the icon to appear on the desktop when I plug one of these two into a usb port.
I have created a file called /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules that have one line: BUS="usb", KERNEL="sd?1", SYSFS{serial}="070B001610A0280", NAME="thumb" where the serial number is the serial number from my usb key. In the /etc/fstab in addition to other lines I have this: /dev/sda /mnt/ipod vfat rw,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/thumb /media/usbkey vfat rw,user,auto 0 2 I can mount a usb pen drive as root mount /dev/sda /mnt/ipod but it reports that it is busy when I type umount /dev/sda /mnt/ipod . There is no /dev/thumb I created a /media/usbkey Thanks, -- Dan Hunt Saint Brieux Saskatchewan Canada
