Good question :-)
I don't like the automount idea at all, I prefer manual mounting. You could try..
I found it quite neat not to have to mount everytime by hand. Anyway, what do I have to do to change the automount into a manual mount? I probably will have to change the fstab: /dev/dvd /media/dvd subfs fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=utf8 0 0 /dev/dvdrecorder /media/dvdrecorder subfs fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=utf8 0 0 /dev/fd0 /media/floppy subfs fs=floppyfss,procuid,nodev,nosuid,sync 0 0 /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom subfs fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=utf8 0 0
but into what? Also I assume I have to disable some automounter deamon. Where do I do that (Yast I suppose?)
Change 'subfs' to 'auto' and remove the 'fs=xxxfss' altogether. Add 'user' to the mount options, if you want to be able to mount as user. To disable it temporarily, you could also simply do 'umount /dev/dvd', then it won't be mounted automatically and you can do 'mount /dev/dvd /media/dvd' to mount it manually. If you give more than one parameter to mount it won't look in fstab. But then you always have to be root to mount.
Also, does k3b need to mount the writer, and how will this work with no autofs?
You only mount file systems, and until you've burned the CD there is no file system on it, so k3b doesn't mount it.
