The point is not about what I can do for my backup, but more about : Why one has to consider such or such practice bad as it is always from their very own point of view! I mankind could only stop looking at it own nombrile ... I only wanted to point out that one couldn't imagine all and every use someone could have for a specific feature. Finaly what I wanted to say is : please, don't do to OpenSuSE things that aren't in an open mind, such as finding an old 'this isn't secure' reason to trash features that are used and usefull to others! > Let's not exaggerate this either, a lot of people have been able to live > for years without "hotplug mounting".
