It's not in my last post, but it is posted earlier.
I asked tons of exact questions, I posted outputs from my terminal, and gave
tons of feedback. I mean did you even read the thread?
But since you refer to your intervention, I told you (which is feedback in a
way) that what you're suggesting might help make the script tighter, but
since the scripts roughly works already, that's obviously not where the focus
should be. Yet.
I don't see why it wouldn't deserve help more than anything else.
Most likely, I don't help when I don't know about the solution, not because
it's a problem related to a non-standard install. So of course I expect it,
that's why I ask for it.
And when I don't get the help, I try on my own, that's all there is to it. No
hard feelings or anything.
Ok it's a bit unfair since it's a netinstall with i3wm, but seriously, not
that much. It should't be that obscure to make it work. It's not even hard,
all it took was to create a text file, and automount worked, regardless of
the file manager. Because if you read the thread, you'll see that I tried
Thunar, PCmanFM, AND Nautilus. The problem was global. and Nautilus is much
heavier, that's why I don't use it.
Also I didn't look for a script specific to Thunar, a script can be launched
in different ways.
But such a simple and essential information (from the advanced beginner's
POV, I admit that), it took me ages to find. Thankfully, I learned some stuff
on the way, so it's not all wasted. Plus it can be useful to someone else.
The safely remove thing should be also simpler to setup.
It's one clic from a rooted gnome-disks, and that equals 2 commands I'm aware
of (posted in this thread). And they work.
But making them work without root, that's harder.
hell, maybe the answer is within udev. Now I can try and find out.
i3wm is for advanced users, but that's how you become advanced, by advancing.
Plus it's not rocket science. It's indeed not supposed to be used with the
mouse, because th keyboard is faster. But when the command is longer than two
mouse clics, it's deeply idiotic to stic to the keyboard in that case.
Specially when the same right-clic action can be done with the keyboard with
2 stokes.
Anyway, now I can detach the HDD in 4 clicks and my password. Still better
and faster than 1 keyboard stroke to launch the CLI, typing one long command
without typo (provided I don't have to identify the drive first), then 1
keystroke and my password. But there must be a better way.
If I can make the command word without password prompt, the dmenu and
goodbye. done before I can blink an eye.
But your're right, I should make a proper recap, maybe in the wiki.
