First, the Movies drive is USB, which doesn't require sudo permissions, and it was often mounted at Movies1 instead of Movies. More importantly, I rarely try to mount something with the GUI, but if I did, it mounted right away - just not in the right folder, the same as when I mounted something from the command line. The only theory I can come up with is that mount can't mount something to an existing folder, therefore it makes up a new one. But that makes little sense too, because now that the mount point is specified in fstab, mount happily mounts the drives into existing folders. If I executed the command 'mount /dev/sdc /media/jjj/Movies' the command would execute immediately and without error, but /dev/sdc would usually be mounted in /media/jjj/Movies1. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
