Stop auto-mounting in Redhat!!!

<< < (2/3) > >>

flap:
how is it managing to mount audio cds? are they enhanced?

Calum:
well i know that the following answer will be wrong because i have tried both mandrake and red hat and the following is mandrake specific, but to stop mandrake automounting CDs and floppies after an install, i have to do:
--- Code: ---
--- End code ---
(actually i usually just do 'emacs /etc/fstab' and fix it according to 'man mount')

as i said though, that's probably not the answer. do 'supermount --help' to just make sure. if you get a little blurb about supermount then it's worth doing the above. what's your current fstab say anyway?

flap:
He doesn't want to disable automount altogether, just for audio cds. Which confuses me as audio cds can't be mounted.

pkd_lives:
I think he means auto playing of audio CDs, in which case under System (settings?) there is a disk management option, which can be used to determine what happens when you put a disk in the drive. Play, open Nautilus, automount.

Ice-9:
Yeah well my bad, I'm sorry I have given wrong info.

I could've sworn that this was what I did on my other pc when first testing RH, it was involving fstab, but also autofs and auto.master I think.
