That looks normal. Having lines in fstab for removable media is not a good solution in general - insert two sticks and the second one doesn't have a matching line (it isn't /dev/sdb1) That's why automounter apps were developed so you can get the config out of fstab and replace it with something more generic somewhere else. udisks is the app you are suing for this and it's the most common solution chosen by most DEs. When was udisks last updated on your system? What was updated/installed at the last update when this problem started? -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
