I do this via autofs, and just say /mnt/dvd when I want UDF and /mnt/cdrom when I want a CDROM. It does depend on having my eyes open when I stick the medium in the drive...
Of course, this merely bypasses the autodetection. -- Cameron Simpson, DoD#743 cs@zip.com.au http://www.zip.com.au/~cs/
Ed Campbell's <ed@Tekelex.Com> pointers for long trips: 7. Be prepared to have at least 1 flat, 2 electrical problems and a broken chain. Maybe a broken clutch cable too. The best prevention is to be able to fix it on the spot, only things you can't fix will break according to the law. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
