Hi Fabian,
*1. Here is by mtab before mounting:*
geonix at GeoNix ~ $ cat /etc/mtab
/dev/sda5 / reiser4 rw,noatime,notail 0 0
proc /proc proc rw 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec 0 0
udev /dev tmpfs rw,nosuid 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,nosuid,noexec 0 0
/dev/sda2 /boot reiserfs rw,noatime,notail 0 0
/dev/sda10 /mnt/gentoo reiserfs rw,noatime,notail 0 0
/dev/sda7 /mnt/easy vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,umask=0000 0 0
/dev/sda8 /mnt/progs vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,umask=0000 0 0
/dev/sda9 /mnt/music vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,umask=0000 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/xp vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,umask=0000 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs rw,nosuid,nodev 0 0
usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs rw,noexec,nosuid,devmode=0664,devgid=85 0 0
binfmt_misc /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0
svcdir /var/lib/init.d tmpfs rw,mode=0755,size=2048k 0 0

*2. Then when I do mount manually *
geonix at GeoNix ~ $ sudo mount /dev/sdb "/media/MP3 MUVO2"
geonix at GeoNix ~ $
geonix at GeoNix ~ $ ls "/media/MP3 MUVO2"
Books films Gentoo Photo playlist RECORDINGS WinXp
There are no any failures or warning appears
*3. Here is the output of the cat /etc/mtab after the device /dev/sdb
was mounted *
geonix at GeoNix ~ $ cat /etc/mtab
/dev/sda5 / reiser4 rw,noatime,notail 0 0
proc /proc proc rw 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec 0 0
udev /dev tmpfs rw,nosuid 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,nosuid,noexec 0 0
/dev/sda2 /boot reiserfs rw,noatime,notail 0 0
/dev/sda10 /mnt/gentoo reiserfs rw,noatime,notail 0 0
/dev/sda7 /mnt/easy vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,umask=0000 0 0
/dev/sda8 /mnt/progs vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,umask=0000 0 0
/dev/sda9 /mnt/music vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,umask=0000 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/xp vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,umask=0000 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs rw,nosuid,nodev 0 0
usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs rw,noexec,nosuid,devmode=0664,devgid=85 0 0
binfmt_misc /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0
svcdir /var/lib/init.d tmpfs rw,mode=0755,size=2048k 0 0
/dev/sdb /media/MP3\040MUVO2 vfat rw 0 0
geonix at GeoNix ~ $
*4.Here is also my fstab,if it's needed*
geonix at GeoNix ~ $ cat /etc/fstab
# This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details
#mount -t captive-ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/ntfs
/dev/sda2 /boot reiserfs
noatime,notail 0 0
/dev/sda5 / reiser4
notail,noatime 0 0
/dev/sda10 /mnt/gentoo reiserfs
noatime,notail 0 0
none /proc proc
rw 0 0
/dev/sda6 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/sda7 /mnt/easy vfat
defaults,users,umask=0000 0 0
/dev/sda8 /mnt/progs vfat
defaults,users,umask=0000 0 0
/dev/sda9 /mnt/music vfat
defaults,users,umask=0000 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/xp vfat
defaults,users,umask=0000 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid 0 0
In the plugin annotation there is a note, that plug reads the entites
from the fstab,
but when using the ivman, there are no any records in the fstab used.
I can be the case... but how in this case plugin (0.4.7) mounted and
umounted my device correctly some time ago?
Best Regards,
Sergei Danilov
