From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050909 Fedora/1.0.6-1.2.fc4 Firefox/1.0.6 Description of problem: I have a partition which I don't want to be mounted automatically. Here's the line of my /etc/fstab: /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3 ext3 noauto,user 1 0 gnome-volume-properties is configured to automount removable media and hotplugged drives but it mounts hda3 too. It is not mounted on boot or in runlevel 3. It seems that the hard disk partition is treated as removable media or it ignores the noauto option in fstab. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-volume-manager-1.3.1-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. have a HD partition of an internal IDE drive in /etc/fstab with the noauto option 2. gnome-volume-properties is configured not to mount removable media when inserted 3. login to gnome-desktop, hda3 is not mounted 4. configure gnome-volume-properties to mount removable media when inserted 5. logout 6. login to gnome desktop Actual Results: hda3 is mounted Expected Results: hda3 is not mounted Additional info: [root@kra:~] uname -a Linux kra.bla.fasel 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 #1 Fri Aug 26 20:29:51 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [root@kra:~] fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 120.0 GB, 120034123776 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 14593 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 2675 21486906 83 Linux /dev/hda2 2676 2806 1052257+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/hda3 2807 4864 16530885 83 Linux /dev/hda4 4865 14593 78148192+ 83 Linux [root@kra:~] cat /etc/fstab /dev/hda1 / xfs defaults 1 1 /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3 ext3 noauto,user 1 0 /dev/hda4 /data xfs user 1 2 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/hdd /media/cdrecorder auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 /dev/hdc /media/cdrom auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks.
the problem has gone away with fc5
