Problems with autofs
I try to automagically mount an usb drive following the autofs instructions in the wiki ( http://wiki.debian.org/AutoFs ). For some reason it just doesn't work. I can't find any relevant error message in messages or syslog. Any ideas where I can begin to troubleshoot? Thanks! # cat /etc/auto.master /var/autofs/removable /etc/auto.removable --timeout=2,sync,nodev,nosui # cat /etc/auto.removable usb -fstype=auto UUID=7DF2-7401 # lsmod | grep autofs autofs424072 1 # blkid /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdc1: LABEL=KINGSTON UUID=7DF2-7401 TYPE=vfat
