Hello,
I am using Enlightenment 0.25.4 and I am trying to get Enlightenment to
display secondary HDD as an mountable HDD in file manager. Previously I
used the HDD this way under KDE.
The computer in question is a dual Sata disk laptop with installation on
NixOS on SSD at /dev/sdb and a secondary data HDD at /dev/sda. The HDD is
not displayed by the enlightenment file manager (EFM), while any other USB
flashdrive or USB HDD I tried worked flawlessly. The HDD contains one Ext4
partition labeled "Data" and is omitted from the the fstab, so that it is
not mounted by the system automatically. The EFM is set to UDISKS2 mode.
I suspected the EFM considers the HDD a "system drive" (as in udev
HintSystem) and hides it. Before my intervention the HDD was reported by
udiskctl (# udisksctl info -b /dev/sda) "HintSystem: true". Adding
appropriate udev rule I changed this to false (both for /dev/sda and the
/dev/sda1 partition). This did not help. I have inspected the source code
concerning UDISKS2 from EFM (src/bin/e_fm/e_fm_main_udisks2.c) where I
found check for "HintSystem" applied to block devices. There is also a
check applied to storage devices: non-removable, non-hotswappable,
non-ejectable storage device is considered system. It seems to me that this
check is not be applied to block devices. Finally I also removed the "~/.e"
directory, which did not help as well.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Vlastimil
