[Bug 390304] Re: external usb disk drives are mounted under their UUID's

2009-08-21 Thread Bernhard
I, for example, have a lot of scripts to backup different parts of my HD (it's more complicated than just backing up the whole $HOME folder) and I have to specify the USB path in those scripts. Now say I switch to a different USB flash drive, then I have to change all those scripts. Then there is t

The changes that were made in karmic which make this bug possible: -applications now use udev directly (using libudev) -devicekit-disks replaces what used to be handled by the disk handling part of HAL Spoke to Chris Coulson via IRC and he makes a strong point about persistence in mount point pat

I don't believe this to be the intended behavior. It may be a side- effect of moving to devicekit, but the intended behavior in Ubuntu has always been human readable names for mount points such as /media/disk, disk-1, disk-2... and so on. Chris, please comment as you triage. Is there a reason you

I can confirm this and reproduce it on many machines running Karmic. If a partition is unlabeled, mounting it will mount it to /media/$UUID instead of /media/disk-# ** Changed in: devicekit-disks (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- external usb disk drives are mounted under their

The problem was the drive didn't have a label. I had to install gparted and umount the drive. Gparted allowed me to label the drive. When I brought it back up it was mounted under the label. Thanks! On Mon, Jun 22, 2009 at 2:33 AM, Martin Pitt wrote: > Actually, I used to have this problem i

Actually, I used to have this problem in Karmic, but I cannot reproduce it any more. Your dk-disks dump shows that your device does not actually have a label (or that dk-disks fails to detect it). When you plugged in such a device in question, can you please also attach /var/log/kern.log, and give
