[opensuse] where is stored the mountoint name
Hello, I have an usb disk that I want to use for bakckup with rsync. for this I want it to have a simple name. I chose "autres-2" (I already have "autres-1") I give it this name with e2label (it's ext4) but this disk was once mounted with an other name ("Elements"), and keep mounting (as user) to the old name. It's mounted automatically in /run/media/username I want to mount it by the present name. how can I do that. * making Leap 15.1 forget the name Elements? removing the mount point don't works, it's recreated with the same (Elements) * find where is stored this name to change it manually... * any other way thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

good guess, but fails :-( whathever way I generate the uuid (random or time), it mounts on the same place :-( jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Then no idea. Reformat the stick? Perhaps it is not a stick. If it is not a stick, use fstab. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)

it's a hard drive but as it mounts always on a mount point of the old disk name, it have to be stored somewhere :-), so my question. it's an automatic mount point, recreated in /run /media/username if it's removed :-( thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

How did you set up this automounting? There are countless ways to automount disks. Gruß Jan -- Form never follows function. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

There is a GUI for that in KDE System Settings: Removable Devices https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/kde-workspace/kcontrol/solid-device-automount... Maybe the "Forget Device" will help so that you won't have to manually edit the LastSeenName is saved in ~/.config/kded_device_automounterrc Gruß Jan -- They never remember when I'm right and never forget when I'm wrong. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

ok, I see (it's now monted, so the option is greyed out, no problem) so that you won't have to manually edit
the LastSeenName is saved in ~/.config/kded_device_automounterrc
sure, I didn't know this part of the menu. I love Kde :-) thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
