--- Comment #33 from Kay Sievers <kasievers@xxxxxxxxxx>  2007-08-12 16:35:40 MST ---
You should specify:
  [Fstab options] ->
    [x] do not mount at system startup

Unfortunately, there is no real support for setups like this. Usually
hotpluggable drives are "user drives", mounted automatically to /media/, or you
have "system drives" in fstab, which are automatically mounted, but required to
be available at bootup time.

You add an entry to fstab and mark it as "noauto", but then you have to mount
it manually every time you want to use it.

There is today no proper common solution for hotpluggable "system volumes" in
Linux. We may solve that in the future, but not in the 10.3 timeframe.

Thanks!
