Package: pmount Version: 0.8-2 Severity: normal pmount(1) says pmount will call mount for devices listed in /etc/fstab. However it doesn't recognise fstab entries that use a label rather than a device name.
I want to override the permissions when mounting a particular USB hard drive, so I listed it in /etc/fstab. I used LABEL=IHP100 instead of a device name; it's not desirable to hardcode a device name for a removable device. However, pmount didn't find the entry and mounted it itself instead. When I did put /dev/sdc1 instead it worked. Alternatively it would be nice if you could override the permissions (eg disable noexec). I know -e will disable noexec, but in my case pmount is being called from gnome-volume-manager so I have no control. I suppose g-v-m should really add that as an option rather than changing pmount. thanks Hamish -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-amd64-k8 Locale: LANG=en_AU, LC_CTYPE=en_AU (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages pmount depends on: ii dbus-1 0.23.4-6 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libc6 2.3.5-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libhal0 0.4.8-7 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libsysfs1 1.3.0-2 interface library to sysfs pmount recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
