This problem is intermittent. It occasionally fails to mount the hard drive. Was checking Selinux logs in case it was a selinux problem. (Which it could be). While reviewing logs, inserted usb, and mount took place. Disk formatted using gparted with defaults (dos label, ext3, 232gig after formatting) Uncollaborated situation. I cleared the Selinux logs, (deleted all entries, and since then, automount is functioning. I did not reboot to determine if a) if the device is left connectec via the usb, it it will show in an automount, b) the automount is working if Selinux is cleared. At this point, I am assuming that with the logs acknowledged and cleared, that this issue may be closed, I will get back to you in the next 24 hrs. (21 hrs May 12 + 24hrs) Here is the follow up information. If the drive was plugged in at boot time, and the user logs in, the automount will not take place. I tried this with leaving the drive connected, and logging in and waiting for s usb scan. That is when I expected the drive to be recognized. Then I unplugged the drive, waited a minute and replugged it. Still not recognized. I also logged out and tried to get the drive recognized after relogging to the system. Sorry, drive is not recognized. I then rebooted, with the drive not plugged to the USB port. The only way I found that FC7 appears to recognize the automount is if the drive was not plugged in during the boot process. Will add to these comments if the same situation exists with FC6. I did not experience automount problems with FC6. Last entry... If the USB drive is unplugged for more than two minutes, and then replugged, the automount recognizes it and the drive icon appears on the desktop. You decide if this is a normal operation, or did I find some exceptional / undocumented conditions such as needing to wait more than two minutes after unplugging the drive (left in at system boot) for automount logic to reset itself. If what I report is normal, close out this reported bug. |
