Description Prasad H. L. 2005-05-30 09:56:39 UTC
I've developed a firstboot python module which can   
detect other OS(currently only windows) partitions and   
add entries to the fstab. It also creates a user group   
which has access to those partitions. 
   
The version of firstboot is 1.3.33-2. 
 
Also, I've modified create_user.py file so that, the new user being created 
gets added to the new user user group created by the above module. (Obviously, 
create_user.py module must be run after the above new module).  
I don't know how to attach multiple files in this bugzilla form. So, I'm 
sending this create_user.py in the next mail

Thank you for the patch.  At this time, editing /etc/fstab to add partitions for
other operating systems should be getting handled by HAL.  See the man page for
fstab-sync for more information on this.  If it is not happening, this is a
problem with HAL and should be filed as a bug against that component.
