I have a USB drive that I use for backup and in gnome (42.4) it gets 
automatically mounted on /run/media/<user>/<drive>. However, I want to 
export that as an NFS drive. Obviously this means that the drive be 
mounted under a directory independent of the user, and whether or not the 
user has started a gnome session.

So I can put an entry in /etc/fstab for that drive, using the UUID, but 
how do I keep gnome from mounting it on /run/media in the first place? 
I'm guessing it has to be a gnome setting somewhere. 



For kicks, I asked chatGPT and this is is what it suggested:

1. Open the "Settings" application from the Applications menu.
2. In the left pane, click on "Details".
3. In the right pane, click on "Removable Media" in the list of options.
4. Under the "Removable Media" section, uncheck the "Automatically mount 
removable drives" option.

which is not bad, except that in my gnome (42.4) I do not have a "Details" 
item on the left pane. I do have a "Removable Media" item, but it doesn't 
say anything about usb drives.
