User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060921 Ubuntu/dapper-security Firefox/1.5.0.7 Build Identifier: If fstab contains several mount points for a removable device (file system), user should be able to choose which point is used for a volume on a removable device. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert e.g. CD-RW to a CD recorder. 2. Click its item on side pane 3. Actual Results: The first line in fstab containing the removable device is applied when mounting the device. Expected Results: If /etc/fstab contains e.g these lines /dev/hdc /media/cdrecorder udf,iso9660 noatime,user,noauto,sync,rw 0 0 /dev/hdc /media/cdrom udf,iso9660 noatime,user,noauto,sync,ro 0 0 there should be a menu or dialog to choose between /media/cdrecorder and /media/cdrom. The mount point selected by user should be applied when mounting the volume. Why I want this feature: I want to be able to mount read only for security reasons and to be able to read CD-RW volumes made by InCD. There may be occasions where automatically choosing file system (type) does not work.
Uff... selecting the mount point is done by HAL/gnome-mount. Thunar just offers appropriate fallbacks. But aside from the fact that HAL is some kind of a mess right now, Thunar just tells HAL to mount volume XYZ, and everything else (including figuring out a suitable mount point) is done by HAL and its helper tools (i.e. pmount or gnome-mount).
