DVD-RAM is mounted to /media/disk
Last modified: 2007-06-05 11:04:27 UTC
After inserting of DVD-RAM, the medium is mounted to /media/disk. It is not very intuitive. The DVD-RAM is a multisession medium, all sessions have a label. Expected result: Mount point /media/dvdram or /media/{media_label with spaces replaced with _}
Created attachment 72600 [details] lshal.txt Output of lshal.
This is handled by the hal mounting scripts.
This version of HAL does not handle mountpoints with spaces and falls back to "disk".
Version in 10.0 replaced " " by "_".
Created attachment 73043 [details] patch to substitute strange characters instead of rejecting them I already suggested a patch like this upstream. It resulted in the mount script rewritten in C with no sanitizing at all.
with beta 9, suse don't add anything for my dvd-ram to fstab file.... i need to add the correct line.... also, only root seem to have access to media
fstab is no more modified in SuSE Linux 10.1. For automounting use GNOME, KDE or ivman.
Danny. i guess it is simple to fix. Confirming, that the attached patch fixes this problem. And a small packaging issue: scripts should go to libexecdir and /usr/lib/hal/scripts - see bug 62050 comment 3.
added the patch and changed libexecdir ... submitted a new package
