[opensuse] change default mount options for vfat on flash drives
Hello: How can I change default (auto)mount options for vfat file system on removable flash disks (like sd cards) and pendrives? I would like to set options iocharset=winnt, time_offset=120 default when the drives are automatically mounted. I want this on openSUSE Leap 42.2 (KDE3 and KDE4 if it matters).

Hmm, not sure what the official way is, but as there's no reply yet: for my cardreader (which I prefer to get mounted as /media/sdcard anyhow) I created an fstab entry /dev/mmcblk0p1 /media/sdcard auto noauto,user,shortname=lower,uid=1000 0 0 The automounter honors this entry, too. So you should be able to specify your wanted options there, like my 'shortname=lower' -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

You can change the default automatic mount point to /media, there is a trick for that if you are interested. For manual mounts, as in fstab, I abstain from /media and use /mnt.
/dev/mmcblk0p1 /media/sdcard auto noauto,user,shortname=lower,uid=1000 0 0

Yes, as long as the device name holds it will work. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

Thanks, but that was specific for the SDcard reader, as I have some scripts that refer to /media and I was too lazy to change... /run/media is fine for the rest :)

Indeed - the TO mentioned pendrives. For those it would fail. The cardreader if built-in HW of the laptop, won't change that easy... *eg* -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
