[Sorry for the long delay, but other stuff intervened.] I've come back to this now and started experimenting incrementally. As a first step, I just want to automount/unmount, ignoring the power- on/off part for now, i.e. the device is already powered on. This is my /etc/fstab entry: UUID=6cb66da2-147a-4f3c-a513-36f6164ab581 /raid ext4 rw,noauto,user,x-systemd.automount 0 0 and /etc/systemd/system/raid.automount (copied from your example): [Unit] Description=Automount /raid [Automount] Where=/raid TimeoutIdleSec=10 [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target I've rebooted, and the device starts up mounted: # findmnt /raid TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS /raid systemd-1 autofs rw,relatime,fd=52,pgrp=1,timeout=10,minproto=5,maxproto=5,direct,pipe_ino=24910 though I'm not sure why as nothing is accessing it. It also remains mounted, despite the timeout. Any thoughts? poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
