This is not handled by autofs. It is handled by hal. I'll reassign, in case this is an actual regression. But you should be able to modify your hal configuration to include your pcmcia card. I recently updated to 2.6.12-1.1372_FC3 and the hal mount of my sandisk pcmcia SD card reader stopped working. It continues to work fine when I boot 2.6.11-1.35_FC3. Under the 1.1372 kernel I see messages in /var/log/messages that seen to indicate that the action was triggered but I don't get a mount. When I manually issue the mount (that is in fstab), it says it cant find the device. There is a /dev/hde1 in /dev. Seems like something odd changed in the kernel between releases. adding to my previous comment.... here is what came out of /var/log/messages Aug 7 09:19:04 ddhill kernel: cs: memory probe 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff: excluding 0xa0000000-0xa00fffff Aug 7 09:19:04 ddhill cardmgr[3172]: socket 0: ATA/IDE Fixed Disk Aug 7 09:19:05 ddhill kernel: hde: Memory Card Adapter, CFA DISK drive Aug 7 09:19:05 ddhill kernel: ide2 at 0x100-0x107,0x10e on irq 3 Aug 7 09:19:05 ddhill kernel: hde: max request size: 128KiB Aug 7 09:19:05 ddhill kernel: hde: 246016 sectors (125 MB) w/1KiB Cache, CHS=961/8/32 Aug 7 09:19:05 ddhill kernel: hde: cache flushes not supported Aug 7 09:19:05 ddhill kernel: hde: hde1 Aug 7 09:19:05 ddhill kernel: ide-cs: hde: Vcc = 3.3, Vpp = 0.0 Aug 7 09:19:06 ddhill kernel: hde: hde1 Aug 7 09:19:11 ddhill fstab-sync[5536]: added mount point /media/idedisk for /dev/hde1 Aug 7 09:19:11 ddhill kernel: hde: hde1 the mount point /media/idedisk is in place, the fstab entry is in place. If I try a manual mount I get: sudo mount /media/idedisk/ mount: special device /dev/hde1 does not exist file /dev/hde1 /dev/hde1: block special (33/1) still a problem with 2.6.12-1.1376 I tried removing & MAKEDEV hde, did not help. I have been trying a few things over the last little while. Using Gnome panel's disk mounter can help. If I install FC4 with my Lexar Cardbus CF reader and Sandisk 16-bit CF reader in my slots, I will be able to mount them via the disk mounter only on the first bootup. The Lexar does not automatically appear in fstab; however the Sandisk does. I would just copy and alter the dev name and mount location and voila. The fstab line is like a CD or floppy drive. /dev/hdc /media/cdrecorder auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 However, after the computer is rebooted, it does not appear in fstab again. Even the one I typed in is deleted. The Sandisk does not come back either. One can hardcode it as vfat and special other options, but that defeats the purpose of hotswap and plug'n'play. Any why does the Lexar card reader only work after first bootup and never again, updates or no updates? The 16 bit Sandisk started auto mounting after I upgraded to Gnome 2.14 from www.nrpms.net and other updates from FC4 project. Lexar still only works w/ the original kernel (which is the only was compiled w/ the driver in it or in a module). |
