For the automounter to work properly, you need to have a place to mount the DVD. In this version and I suspect 10.1, the mount point is not being created. Hence you can not mount the DVD. The trick with the fstab creates a place for the automounter to mount the device mount. That is the reason, I say the name is not being created in the /media. In version 10.0, you could create mount point, but in this version, the mount points get created and deleted dynamically.
By the way, I now have it working with the automounter. I just look at /misc/dvd and the dvd is automatically mounted. If I wait 1 minute and nothing is looking at it, it will automatically unmount the dvd. -- Joseph Loo [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
