That's a good point. I tend to use an Ubuntu live image to do things like cloning my main disk, and I've wasted quite a few hours after not noticing it's auto-mounting the disk I'm copying too and so trashing my clone. (I find out the copy is bad when doing a binary compare after the multi-hour copying is done.) -- Tixy
