See Patrick's response to your question. I have an external USB HDD and I just tried that - and it mounts in /media, but I don't have it in fstab. So, you choices are: remove the HDD from fstab and do the "fix"; or do what Patrick suggests by using YaST to give it a different mount point.

No assuming being done because this problem does not exist in 12.2 and only appeared in 12.3.

From *my* perspective the only reason why you would you would have a USB device listed in fstab is if it is always switched ON when the computer is booted. If he connects the USB when he really needs it then removing it from fstab would make it mount in /media which is what always happens in 12.2 (as I just proved).

He could also use mount it in fstab with noauto,comment=systemd.automount and the mount point will come up automatically when needed ("needed" == mount point accessed) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Basil, AIUI, the issue with /run/media/<user>/ as a mount point is caused by udisk2. In openSUSE 12.2, Gnome uses udisk2 and kde uses udisk1. Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

In openSUSE 12.2, Gnome uses udisk2 and kde uses udisk1.
As I stated in another list, <sarcastic mode engaged> there is nothing like consistency between distros. And it's even better when it occurs within the same distro. <sarcastic mode disengaged> The OP didn't mention that he was using Gnome. And I never used it except as an experiment many many years ago. So it is interesting to learn what you just mentioned. Another "gotcha" to clear when someone asks a question: ask them if they are using KDE or Gnome.

You may want to review: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=809837 It required a back port from the latest upstream to resolve. That may not be appropriate for 11.2, but I would add a reference to that bug in your bug.
