[Kernel-packages] [Bug 153768] Re: External SATA (eSATA) removable disk not auto mounted
I have Ubuntu 12.04 desktop, and my newly external drive(ext4) connected to the computer through eSATA interface, is not automatically mounted when I turn it on. Manual mounting works ok. Would be nice to have it automatically mounted when turned on! I am planning to install the latest desktop LTS... i hope it will be auto mounted there! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153768 Title: External SATA (eSATA) removable disk not auto mounted Status in Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL): Fix Released Status in The Linux Kernel: Invalid Status in OEM Priority Project: Won't Fix Status in OEM Priority Project oneiric series: Won't Fix Status in hal package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in udisks2 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: eSATA disks are are not auto mounted when plugged in.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 153768] Re: External SATA (eSATA) removable disk not auto mounted
So I have an idea I'm working on to finally fix this. Udisks could be modified to look for a udev attribute that indicates the drive is connected via esata, and treat the drive correctly. This attribute could be imported from the parent ata port, if it is known that the port is an esata port. The udev hwdb could be configured to know that a specific port on specific known motherboards is esata. I'm still trying to sort out how to set up such a matching rule in the udev hdwb though since there doesn't seem to be a way to match on multiple requirements joined by AND rather than OR. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153768 Title: External SATA (eSATA) removable disk not auto mounted Status in Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL): Fix Released Status in The Linux Kernel: Invalid Status in OEM Priority Project: Won't Fix Status in OEM Priority Project oneiric series: Won't Fix Status in “hal” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “udisks” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: eSATA disks are are not auto mounted when plugged in.
