I've set up an Ubuntu 9.10 box with 3 hard drive caddies plus 2 onboard
permanent drives.
I added the second permanent drive after the initial installation, and I
will be swapping various additional drives in the bays as required, up
to a maximum of 5 drives.
I added this line to fstab:
UUID=728e30cd-3074-4cd6-b38f-22d0bf916391 /home/david/Desktop/500mb ext3
defaults 0 0
The second on-board drive now mounts, but as well as mounting at the
point indicated, I also get a hard drive icon - in other words the drive
is duplicated on the Desktop - once in the folder called 500mb and once
in an icon with the label of drive. It's not very tidy.
When I start using the removable drives, I will want a second user to be
able to log in remotely and use his drives, which he will manually
switch as required. I don't want all his drives showing up on my Desktop
as icons.
Can anyone point me at the correct way to set up fstab?
thanks...
David.
