Auto mount with emelFM2

I am using emelFM2 file manager. I am wondering how to enable auto mount/unmount of USB drives with it? I see an icon around the bottom right to "mount and unmount a device". But it seems not working properly. Or do I have to set up some permission for emelFM2 to mount and unmount?

try zuluMount[1]
it will give you an option to auto mount the newly attached drive as well as auto open a default file manager on successful mounts.
you can get it as part of zuluCrypt project from this link[2]
Its a desktop environment/file manager independent GUI based solution for encrypted and unencrypted device management.

Using NFS Auto Mounts with File Event Generators (FEG)

Has anyone had experience with using WLI file event generators with auto mounted NFS filesystems? The problem that we are running into is that threads are staying blocked if there is an I/O request to a hard mounted NFS filesystem that does not return a response. We know we need to figure out why periodically we are not getting a response from the NFS server on some requests, but the thought is that at least with auto mounting, the request would time out and the thread would continue, process the I/O exception, and then go back into the pool. Thx.

OK, I have a work around that will do for now: disable DNFS, like this:
cd $GI_HOME/rdbms/lib
make -f ins_rdbms.mk dnfs_off
Re-start ASM, and then it works:
SQL>
SQL> alter system set asm_diskstring='/dev/sd*1','/u01/nfs_shares/asm/*' scope=memory;
System altered.
SQL> select group_number,path,header_status from v$asm_disk;

Stop external drive auto-mounting with utf8=1 option

The filenames on my external disk aren't showing up right. I've used and am using a typical GNOME setup, and this only started happening when I stopped upgrading for a long while, then went with a complete re-install.
A little experimenting showed that mounting it without the utf8=1 option fixed those filenames. Given the labyrinth of HAL, DBus, udev and DeviceKit, how do I stop my vfat external drive mounting with utf8=1?
There's more info over at the cross-posted thread in Desktop Environments, but I felt it would be more appropriate to ask here instead.

I've "fixed" the issue by adding this line to /etc/fstab:
UUID=3BEC-9DA3 /media/WD\040Passport vfat rw,user,uid=1000,gid=100,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=0,noauto,flush 0 0
This stops the utf8=1 option being used when I hotplug my external disk.
However, GNOME now has a phantom "WD Passport" external drive icon. It never seems to point to anything, and whenever it's so much as selected, an error dialog appears saying that nothing is mounted there. Another, actual drive icon can access the disk, but the phantom icon is annoying.
Does anybody have a better way of setting mount options in this setup than using /etc/fstab?
If not, does anybody know how to get rid of the phantom drive icon?

[Solved] Auto-open a file manager after mounting with udev rules

Hellooooo,
I followed the udev Wiki for auto mounting USBs and it now works great.
The only problem is: how can I automatically open a file manager of the mounted directory? I tried putting this at the end of the "ACTION=="add"," section in "/etc/udev/rules.d/11-media-by-label-auto-mount.rules" but for some reason nothing happens:
, RUN+="/usr/bin/dolphin /media/%E{dir_name}"
Even if I just try to open dolphin with the "ACTION=="add"," section nothing happens either way.
So what am I doing wrong?

In that case, the best choice in my opinion is to use Automounting UDisks Wrappers :
devmon is a script developed by IgnorantGuru. He left Arch Linux, but the package in AUR is still there and is the last version. For a future new release, it should be available at his blog site. The script is distro independent.
My udisksvm script, in its default state, doesn't launch a file manager after automounting, but it is not a big thing to let the automounting be done and then manually open a file manager (a new entry in the traydevice right-click menu can also be added for that).
If you can do without automounting, there is also the bashmount script from jnguyen.
All these scripts don't require writing any udev rules, they use udisks instead.
I hope you could find something you like and which will suit your wishes.

Difference with CD auto-mount between OL 5.7 and OEL 5.4

Hello,
I'm experiencing a difference when auto-mounting a CD between OL 5.7 and OEL 5.4 (x86_64).
Under OEL 5.4, a CD does not have "execute" privileges.
The mount command shows the following relevant entry:
Oracle Linux 5.7:
/dev/hdc on /media/Oracle_11gR2_x86-64 type udf (ro,nosuid,nodev,uid=0)Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.4
/dev/hdc on /media/Oracle_11gR2_x86-64 type udf (ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev,uid=0)I also wonder why there is a difference when using Ubuntu. In Ubuntu Linux (11.04) I can address the problem by installing "autofs" and modifying /etc/auto.misc to include the "exec" mount option. For instance:
cd -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev,exec :/dev/cdromHowever, under Oracle Enterprise Linux, modifying /etc/auto.misc has no affect.
I suspect the the differences are related to gnome-mount and HAL. I know how to work-around the problem, but I wonder if someone knows more details and when and what was changed regarding this issue between OEL 5.4 and OL 5.7
Thanks and kind regards.

Meanwhile I found the source of information:
http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html-single/5.6_Technical_Notes/index.html#hal
5.6_Technical_Notes
Prior to this update, the "noexec" option was enforced when mounting CDs, preventing scripts on that media from being run automatically. However, this also prevented applications that rely on executing from media from working correctly. Since the intended level of protection provided by this feature is minimal, and there are other ways to achieve it, the feature has been removed and the "noexec" option is no longer enforced.

E17 on a fresh Arch Linux + gtk apps... auto mounting and other issues

hi all...
I have gone through the forums and found a similar but-not-quite-the-same thread about this, which is why I am posting a new thread - so, please excuse any redundancy/laziness.
As the topic says, I am making a new Arch Install, on my laptop that has/had arch+kdemod on it for quite some time now. I have now tarred that old install and put it on my desktop that has more RAM than this lappy. So I went with a minimalist approach - after googling for long, I managed to put together something that takes up about 350 MB RAM, when running the desktop, firefox, mplayer, openoffice, two or three terminals, and conky - which is all pretty good. But I am having some teething troubles in many issues, so any help in the following is most appreciated.
My set-up and the problems....
WM - e17, from the repos (I tried, but could not get the easy_e17 script to work properly)
FM - emelfm2
- I am not able to get my USBs, CDs, DVDs etc to mount automagically. I have HAL from the repos. This is my fstab.
/dev/cdrom /media/cd auto ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
/dev/dvd /media/dvd auto ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
#/dev/fd0 /media/fl auto user,noauto 0 0
This setup gave me no trouble at all when using Arch-Kdemod. Now I have to be root to mount from the command line, and can not auto mount cd/dvd/USBs.
E17 file manager enabled is also no help.
browser - firefox, dillo
terminal - mrxvt
editor - leafpad
audio - mpd + sonata
video - gmplayer
sys monitor - conky
cd/dvd burner - recorder, from the repos
Openoffice, PSPP for statistics
Pidgin
Wengophone2
at the moment I am behind a proxy and haven't yet tried it, but can anyone confirm it is still working...?
epdfview
chmsee
rtorrent
feh, exhibit
dreamchess
That is the whole setup, in case it helps someone.
Thanks for reading, and waiting for suggestions about the auto mount issue.

hi all...
Thanks for the replies.
@fingel... That udev rules addition on the wiki gave me the jitters initially as it looked like I was hacking away at my systems innards, BUT, after trying everything else, including things mentioned here, nothing worked. So I finally did the udev thing, and now the USB is mounting fine.
However I still cannot get DVDs or CDs to mount. I am added to the optical group, and yet I have to click the mount icon in emelfm2 to be able to mount the CD or DVD - the only consolation is that I am able to mount it as normal user.
Any help there....? I haven't modified anything from the usual install, except for this udev thingy.
And, How can I make the mrxvt terminal show me more lines on scrolling up. Now it is allowing me to scroll up only by 10 lines or so, and I am having to pipe through less to be able to view anything meaningful in commands like yaourt -Ss

How to turn off auto mounting of server on boot?

I've got an old MacPro that is running Mavericks but is having an issue where the finder constantly crashes and restarts. I think it may have to do with a an old server (an external Mac mini) that would mount when the MacPro booted up because I now get an error message telling me that the Mac Pro can no longer find that server (which makes sense as it is no longer there). If I leave the error window open and don't click 'ok', the Finder remains intact and the crash loop does not begin. If I click 'ok' in the server connection error window, the problems begin.
…So, where do I "turn off" this auto mounting of the old mac mini on boot? I've looked in my Login items in the system prefs and no such task is there, and I can no longer recall how i even set up this automount function.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Repair Disk.
Choose Apple menu > Restart. Hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys as your computer restarts.
When you see a white screen with an Apple logo in the middle, you can release the keys.
Click Disk Utility, and then click Continue.
In the list at the left, select the item you want to repair.Macintosh HD.

How Do I find out what app is auto-mounting a network share and stop it?

I have a new laptop, the 13" rMBP. I installed Steam and wanted to use the network share on my server to store the game files. Everything went OK. I closed Steam, disconnected the share and shutdown my laptop. When I opened my laptop later on at work, it started to try and mount the network share.It keeps on going it. I removed the Steam app and all files related to Steam that I could find. I've looked at fstab, auto_home, auto_master and a large list of other files and directories and I *still* cannot find the offending file that's auto-mounting the share. It's really frustrating.
The share auto-mounts when I am home but not on the desktop or in finder. I find it by looking at /Volumes/ in terminal. If I mount the share manually under /Volumes/ it shows as Games-1 and mounts on the desktop under Games.
Does anyone have any ideas on where I should be looking to find the offending process/file/daemon?
Thank you!
Trevor

thanks for the reply but are you sure about this? What difference would it make? Why 5 apps?
Even if it does work, which I doubt, at some point, I will have to resync ALL my apps again and surely the same thing will happen again, and I will be none the wiser. I still won't know which app it is. There must be a way of finding this out.
Any ideas?
What is really freaking me out is how it is connecting to my carrier (who is charging me) with Cellular data switched off.......?
Thanks again.

External Hard Drive connected to AEBS does not auto mount

Just upgraded from Tiger 10.4.11 to Leopard 10.5.5. I have a AEBS running 5.3.2 airport utility with a LaCie HD connected to it.
In Tiger, my external hard drive would auto mount onto the desktop every time the computer turned on or woke up from sleeping etc.
In Leopard, my external drive will not auto mount. It does not show up in the sidebar under devices. It does not show up in the disk utility. To access it, I have to go the the finder sidebar, select my AEBS under shared, then select my HD. Also, I did check show connected servers and external disk on the desktop in the finder preferences. Also, not sure if this matters but the icon on my external drive on my desktop is the blue drive with three people holding hands and not the brighter blue one with the wireless signal logo.
In tiger my external HD basically acted like any other folder that was always there and not like a networked drive that I had to go and connect to. I want to go back to that. I heard this has to do with leopord no longer having the airdisk utility??
thanks

Try making an alias of one of the top-level folders in your external (AEBS-connected) drive, drag it to the desktop, and then put it in your Login Items.
--> System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items
You can simply drag the folder alias into the Login Items window.
When you next log in, the folder will be automatically opened. Alas, it doesn't give you instant access to the entire external drive, but you can back out a level to see the entire drive. It isn't quite what you had with Tiger, but perhaps it will suffice.
If you leave the aliased folder on your desktop, you have a skinny approximation to the mounted volume that you had with Tiger.

External hard drive and SD card won't auto mount

I am using MBP with retina on Yosemite. MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013).
On Maverick, all my external drives used to auto mount. The same was true just after Yosemite was installed. Lately, only my Time Machine hard drive auto mounts and others don't, e.g. my backup drive that I use with Super Duper! and my camera SD card. I have to go to disk utility and mount them manually. I did not see any option for auto mount in disk utility.
Could you please guide me on how to get auto mount back?
Thanks in advance

I have been dealing with this same issue for the past several months. Running a Macbook Pro (Mid 2010) with OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. This problem occurs when I plug in Firewire, USB, or SD card. The external hardware appear to be working fine, it has to be either a setting, or a quirk that needs corrected with Yosemite. I have run all OS systems since Snow Leopard. Never had this problem. Anyone have any ideas?

How do I stop a CCC partition auto mounting in Lion

I have an external USB drive with 2 partitions. The first partition has a CCC Clone of my drive before Lion. The second is used for Time Machine. This drive auto mounts on boot which is fine but the CCC partition causes problems with the App Store as it sees Apps that I installed in the Clone backup as installed on Lion. The easy way for me to fix this is just to eject the CCC partition but I have to do this every time I boot. Is there a way of just stopping this drive from auto mounting on boot and manually mounting if need be. Any help would be appreciated. Many Thanks in advance.

I just upgraded to the latest version of Lion--I don't know why it didn't change the info. under my Apple icon. And I know I can uncheck the box while signing off, but you have to do it each time--I'm looking for a way to uncheck it and recheck whenever I want, the way the dock options are supposed to work (although it doesn't for me anymore with Lion).
Checked the Users and Groups--the only login items listed are basically 4 apps that I had back when I had my PC and I no longer have them--I may have had Growl for awhile but I deleted it. There are yellow triangles by them. No other apps listed there.
I guess I'll have to uncheck the box each time I sign off. Tedious, but that's the way it is. Wish I had Snow Leopard back!
Thanks for your suggestions though--just wish they worked.

HAL:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HAL#Troubleshooting
Also check your .xinitrc and make sure your lines matches this:
exec ck-launch-session startxfce4
Lastly, you can also use udev to automount your drives:

Disable Gnome auto mount for one specific UUID

I am using Gnome 3 (gnome disk utility,udisks,udev stack i think).
I have a device (Garmin Edge 800) that I am only going to use in Virtualbox so I want to prevent it from automatically mounting in Gnome. However I want other devices to auto mount as normal so disabling auto mount entirely isn't an option.
The device got two UUIDs and previously I could write a HAL fdi policy to ignore devices with those UUIDs, but now that HAL is deprecated I am not able to figure out how to do this.

There's probably a udev config file somewhere (udev wiki perhaps) but you can do it with fstab "noauto" that's what I do for partitions I don't want to auto mount.
