Hello folks!

I just got a 256MB USB keydisk. After poking arount fstab(5) aand mount(8), with attention to the tmpfs and usbfs entries, I got exactly nowhere. After a bit more nosing around the manuals and the 'net, I added the following line to fstab,

(One line)
/dev/sda /media/usb vfat rw,user,auto,umask=0000,codepage=1255,iocharset=iso8859-8 0 0


based on an entry for one of my fat32 partitions. (The user option makes it mountable and dismountable by anyone).

I could then do (u)mount /media/usb

which worked perfectly and I could even see the thing quite happily from a Win2K Samba client.

What I would like to do, is have it auto mount and dismount like a CD ROM or a floppy disk. For the latter, the fstab entry is

/dev/fd0 /media/floppy subfs fs=floppyfss,procuid,nodev,nosuid,sync 0 0

I guess I need something like

/dev/sda /media/usb subfs fs=<Umm, what?>,procuid,nodev,nosuid,sync 0 0

Environment: SuSE 9.2 patched upto date.

Any ideas?

Daniel
