Hello, I'm trying to set FreeBSD 8.0 with Gnome as my production OS. Currently I have problem with automounting: almost all my drives and partitions appear on Desktop. Only usb sticks and fat32 storage partition are not mounted (on 8.0) but they are exactly those I need to be automounted:) BTW another fat32 storage partition from slave HDD appears automounted... I read Gnome FAQ and hal FAQ, I googled and found some solution for linux that doesn't work on FreeBSD. I know that I can edit fstab to exclude partitions from automounting and I also can edit/create .fdi file to prevent hal from automounting some partition. However the partitions then disappear from Computer and Removable Media completely. I'd like to set mounting same way as it's done in Ubuntu: all the partitions are listed in Computer and Removable Media but they are not automounted so I can mount any of them as I need with one click. As to removable media such as CD/DVD and usb-sticks I'd like to appear automounted as inserted. I really tried to solve this myself and with the forum help but...no luck. Please help!
