Re: [gentoo-user] cdrom and usb automounting problem..
ummm, anyone there who tried to help, just to let you know problem is solved with this morning's emerge -NDuva world where new udev release (115) apeared..i just casualy pluged stick and it was instanty automounted on fstab defined point (/mnt/usb) as well as a cdrom with same instant mounting few seconds from putting it in a rom.. im glad to have such power community willing to help individual under any circumstances, once again thank yaall :) long live gentoo :) purple..

Re: [gentoo-user] cdrom and usb automounting problem..
pardon me if you've already tried this: does the LiveCD/InstallCD boot? And can you mount the usb stick then? Then you can probe the hardware using the LiveCD/InstallCD tools, cat /proc/..., lsusb, dmesg etc to get some clues. Leastwise you'll know that it's not a hardware problem.

Sorry if I'm repeating previous advice (I didn't follow the thread), but can you mount the USB by hand ? First, you need to enable 'USB MASS STORAGE' in your kernel, after which you should see 'sdan' listed in /dev . Then as root, 'mount /dev/sdan /your/chosen/mountpoint' set the permissions for the latter to allow your user to access it. -- ,, SUPPORT ___//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban Community Studies TRANSIT`-O--O---' University of Toronto -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

yeah, everything is ok: kernel, fstab, permissions, mounting by hand..everything is ok and device is recognized nicely in dmesg when pluged in..the problem is only that it wont automount on point already defined in fstab.. neither ivman works with its automounting feature, im desperate :| -- purple..

Hello purple, heh, look guys, mounting by hand works but thats not the thing i want at the moment.. Please quote some of the email you are responding to, to give context.

If you comment out *all* your entries for cdrom and usb devices in /etc/fstab then with dbus and hald running you should have a system that automounts anything that you plug into it (reboot first if you don't want to restart these services and udev). Messages from dmesg syslog will tell you if something is amiss. That's what *should* happen. If it doesn't then it's something to do with dbus hald, or potentially udev. BTW, only a week ago I had a problem with hald not starting and had to remerge some packages and revdep-rebuild to get it going again. I only happened to notice it because I was looking at the boot messages at the time - so Neil is asking simple Q's for a reason, not just to add to your frustration.

Re: [gentoo-user] cdrom and usb automounting problem..
Maxim, my drive is sda. vfat is compiled in the kerneland working excelent as i already have a vfat partition on other driver which is mounted in the boot time, and 'auto' does not automount neither my cdrom nor usb but any of aforementioned devices are normaly mounted by hand but thats not the thing i want.. i guess i need to have a fully plugplay desktop so problem still remains :| thnxx anyone for help, really appreciate it.. -- purple..

Re: [gentoo-user] cdrom and usb automounting problem..
Hello purple, for some reason automounting on a new gentoo install with KDE don't work.. i tried numerous forums but didnt found the right answer, even tried ivman and autofs but neither of'em don't work as i expect them too. hal-0.5.9.1-r1, dbus-1.0.2-r2, udev-114-r1 are installed and maybe trouble can be in kernel config so i meant to ask which kernel options need to be enabled to take adventage of cdrom and usb automounting?
