Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Gigolo 0.4.1
When automounting a ntfs partition (sda5) in fstab with code:
UUID=... /media/Test ntfs
rw,auto,user,noexec,nls=utf8,uid=1000,gid=46,umask=007 0 0
- automounting is going well
- Gigolo shows Test twice, one mounted (/media/Test), the other not (/dev/sda5)
- the mounted one can be unmounted !
- neither of the two can be mounted again (error message about permissions and
ntfs-3g)
I can bypass this abiguous behavior by automounting the same partition in fstab
with code:
/dev/sda5 /media/Test ntfs
rw,auto,user,noexec,nls=utf8,uid=1000,gid=46,umask=007 0 0
- automounting is going well
- Gigolo shows Test only once (/media/Test), it's mounted
- unmounting not possible, message states only root can unmount (which is
correct)
It would be nice if Gigolo would act this good way also if partitions are
mounted using an UUID.
By the way, as an alternative for fstab, I tried to bookmark the drive in
Gigolo with
Service type = Custom Location
Location (URI) = /dev/sda5
but it ain't working. Is it a synthax thing or is it just not possible ? It
could be an alternative for using fstab as you can do with network drives.
Thanks for coding guys & gals !
Bart.
