Hallo list, I have installed debian/sid on my machine. I own two usb-storrage-devices. On one of them I have stored all my music. This music is known by amarok. But the path under which this disc is available depend on the order of plugging in the two storrage devices. One time it is /dev/sda1 an the other it is under /dev/sdb1. Now there is a way udev provides under /dev/disk/by-id/ to mount one device allways at one mountpoint. But for this I have to make ernties to /etc/fstab. Is this the right way to solve the problem, or is there a way to tell udev not to create /media/sdxy but something like /media/devicename-partitionname? The next problem is that I have no permissions as user if I mount a device after hal has noticed it. root is the owner. So I am not able to add files to the disc. To solve this I did an chown myaccount:myaccount . for the . - file on the disc. So I have the neede permisson, but I do not know it there is a better way to solve this? Hope you have understood what I want to know... Thank you in advance - W. Mader
