Hello there,
w/ my CentOS6 (up-to-date), running GNOME, I'm struggling with HAL and mount options for my USB storage devices.
According to what I'm reading from: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/hal.html My old policies in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/ are ignored (and this is true!). Apparently I should edit my custom mount options through gconf-editor (in /system/storage/default_options/vfat/mount_options) but whatever I set here or in /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor, I see definitely no effect to mount options.
Roughly, I'm trying to force mount options like storage location, flush or not, sync or not, shortname=, etc.) to my vfat-formatted USB sticks.
Any hint? Am I looking at wrong configurations?
BTW, should I worry about uhelper=udisks, does it mean that hal is irrelevant for what I want?
Regards,
