I have encountered some unexpected behavior on openSUSE 12.1: If I create a mount point in /media (mkdir /media/abc), it may or may not be there after a reboot. I know that /media is a tmpfs in 12.1, so the contents are lost at reboot. But since the files sometimes are present after a reboot, some agent must be monitoring /media and arranging the recreation of directories. I can even change a directory name in /media, and it works fine at that time. However, when I reboot, the old named directory - and not the new one - is back. Sometimes... I am guessing that the intention is that I place these things in /mnt. I chose /media instead because the disks are hot swappable SATA disks. They have the flavor of what is usually found in /media. It seems perhaps that /media is no longer a tmpfs in 12.3. Unfortunately I need to get this working on 12.1. I see that /media is not listed in /etc/fstab on 12.1. Who/where/what mounts it as tmpfs? Can I stop it from being mounted as such?
