Sorry for the late post!




First you should be addressing this to the mailing list and not to me
directly. I am running opensuse 10.3 and rcautofs does not exixt on my
system at all. I do not understand what you are talking about. I did a
man rcautofs and id does not shown up nor is it in my /sbin.

Its symbolic link.

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2007-10-30 09:31 /usr/sbin/rcautofs ->
/etc/init.d/autofs

I usually start autofs up by doing

/etc/init.d/autofs start

It exists.

It looks like you have not installed the drivers properly. I would first
suggest that you start posting the /etc/auto.master and /etc/auto.misc
files first.

The files are here.

<snip>
rltashk:~ # more /etc/auto.master
#
# Sample auto.master file
# This is an automounter map and it has the following format
# key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
# For details of the format look at autofs(5).
#
#/misc /etc/auto.misc
#/net -hosts
#
# Include central master map if it can be found using
# nsswitch sources.
#
# Note that if there are entries for /net or /misc (as
# above) in the included master map any keys that are the
# same will not be seen as the first read key seen takes
# precedence.
#
+auto.master
rltashk:~ # more /etc/auto.misc
#
# This is an automounter map and it has the following format
# key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
# Details may be found in the autofs(5) manpage

cd -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom

# the following entries are samples to pique your imagination
#linux -ro,soft,intr ftp.example.org:/pub/linux
#boot -fstype=ext2 :/dev/hda1
#floppy -fstype=auto :/dev/fd0
#floppy -fstype=ext2 :/dev/fd0
#e2floppy -fstype=ext2 :/dev/fd0
#jaz -fstype=ext2 :/dev/sdc1
#removable -fstype=ext2 :/dev/hdd

another thing you are asking about the memory stick aut mounts. You
again need to mention which desktop. I run gnome and it automounts the
various items with no problem.

It used to work with mine from openSuSE 10.1 BUT after 10.2 and 10.3 haven't
got any luck having my USB devices auto mounted

Which version of opensuse are you using?

Am running openSuSE 10.3 KDE.
