I have the same issue with all of my external Harddrives. I now have a /media/ directory full of those appended underscores. This does not occur with internal harddrives however.
Here is output from terminal $ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sdc2 14G 3.3G 11G 24% / varrun 1.2G 88K 1.2G 1% /var/run varlock 1.2G 0 1.2G 0% /var/lock udev 1.2G 96K 1.2G 1% /dev devshm 1.2G 44K 1.2G 1% /dev/shm lrm 1.2G 38M 1.1G 4% /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/volatile /dev/sdd2 270G 251G 19G 94% /media/NTFS DRIVE____ /dev/sdd1 9.8G 171M 9.6G 2% /media/FATDRIVE____ /dev/sdf1 299G 234G 65G 79% /media/FreeAgent Drive_____ output from /media/ directory: $ ls /media/ 200GBSATA FATDRIVE_ FreeAgent Drive NTFS DRIVE 250GBSATA FATDRIVE__ FreeAgent Drive_ NTFS DRIVE_ cdrom FATDRIVE___ FreeAgent Drive__ NTFS DRIVE__ cdrom0 FATDRIVE____ FreeAgent Drive___ NTFS DRIVE___ cdrom1 floppy FreeAgent Drive____ NTFS DRIVE____ FATDRIVE floppy0 FreeAgent Drive_____ Windows Additional info about build: ~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu hardy (development branch) Release: 8.04 $ uname -r 2.6.24-16-generic If anyone knows how to fix this that would be great. -- mount directory is not removed from /media when computer is rebooted with external disk mounted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215926 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
