Hi,
=C2=A0 I'm wondering what I need to read about and do to get a USB dri= ve
to auto-mount reliably at boot time? I don't know anything about udev so I tried what I thought used to work in my /etc/fstab file but it
doesn't work. The drive mounts by hand just fine:

=C2=A0 Must I use udev (and if so how - what do I study to make this work)=
or can I do this in fstab and I've just forgotten something simple?

=C2=A0 Also, what's the feeling these days about the reliability of automounting by device? Would I be better to use e2label on the
partition?

Thanks in advance,
Mark



run lsusb =E2=80=93v

you will see somethin like this

Change idProduct and idVendor and to your data. And name =
too. With this name your device will apear in /dev. And of course mkfir /me=
dia/name
