Hello.
I have been changing around the names of my drives recently, and for some reason the old names of the drives still appear in Nautilus - despite the drive name having been changed in fstab.
An example of this is shown in this screenshot;
Here you can see the directories which exist below /media (Helena, HelenaS, Ianthe, IantheS, Pharmacy, PharmacyS) from the list in the lower right hand side of the screen but you can also see on the upper right hand side of the screen that nautilus thinks there is a path called /media/Ianthe2/Images/...
Ianthe2 is what the drive that is now called Ianthe was called, but I have taken out all reference to it in fstab. The fstab file now looks like this;
Code:
# Samsung (older) drive
# UUID=1d588936-4308-4e8d-9ad8-9c0ba6cf118f /media/HelenaS ext4 defaults 0 0
# UUID=728c678a-4bf6-4c78-8cb2-30b61d9be26f /media/IantheS ext4 defaults 0 0
# UUID=52C399D625D0301D /media/PharmacyS ntfs defaults 0 0
# Hitachi (newer) drive
UUID=8642a4da-ebcc-42d6-8578-a46d2d75843b /media/Helena ext4 defaults 0 0
UUID=2c6d4a49-3311-44ef-8d8b-f297ba425417 /media/Ianthe ext4 defaults 0 0
UUID=3AAFED7A620FE16A /media/Pharmacy ntfs defaults 0 0
#/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom auto user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
#/dev/sr0 /media/dvd udf,iso9660 defaults,noauto,rw,user 0 0
/dev/sr0 /media/dvd udf,iso9660 defaults,noauto,ro,user 0 0
You can see that everything is done by UUID, and I have two HHD's in the machine. I want to mount everything from the Hitachi drive as Ianthe, Helena and Pharmacy, and have commended out the mountings of the partitions from the Samsung drive.
By my understanding, this shouldn't be able to happen - the screenshot of Nautilus shouldn't be possible. What has gone wrong?
All suggestions welcome - thanks.
Oli.
