Mounting USB devices is very, very slow.  This morning I inserted my

minutes later at 10:21:05.

As  background information, in /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules is:

     KERNEL=="sd*1", ATTRS{manufacturer}=="PNY", SYMLINK+="PNY", RUN+="/bin/mount 
-a"

and in /etc/fstab is:

     /dev/PNY /mnt/pny vfat rw,nosuid,auto 0 0

The kernel messages in /var/log/messages for this period of time are in
the attached file (to avoid line wrapping by mail clients).

Any thoughts on why it takes so long and how I can speed up
recognition?

Ideas for enabling more messages (from udev, the kernel, etc) to see
what's happening would also be helpful.

TIA,

David


Just out of curiosity, have you tried it with no entry in fstab? I don't have a entry for any of those in my fstab and it mounts in just a few seconds.

Just a thought.
