Automount USB drive on hardy

[7marius]

Hi,

Isn't there an option to disable automatic mounting of the partitions on my USB harddisk in hardy?

If possible I would like to mount only one of 3 partitions automatically, how is this done correctly?

Played around with fstab a bit, but it doesn't seem to have any effect.

Cheers
Marius

Automount is handled by hald.
I disabled automount for the whole drive by creating a new file:

/etc/hal/fdi/policy/marius.fdi

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- -->

<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="storage.serial" string="HTS42121_2H9AT00_DEF107679C83-0:0">
<merge key="storage.automount_enabled_hint" type="bool">false</merge>
<merge key="volume.policy.should_mount" type="bool">false</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>


To find out your storage.serial, run lshal, and look for the corresponding drive (/dev/sdb).

I remember this was a simple GUI thing in warty, where is it hidden in hardy?
How can I tell hald to still mount one of the 3 partitions?
