Public bug reported: 1. Plug-in Seagate FreeAgent 320GB USB Hard Disk 2. "sudo lshw -C disk" to find device 3. fdisk <device>, delete NTFS partition, create primary linux partition, and write. 4. sudo mke2fs -j <device>1 5. Un-plug device 6. Plug device back in.
Actual outcome: device nodes are created in the /dev directory for the hard disk and the partition. Expected outcome: an icon is created on the desktop and the media is mounted somewhere in the /media directory. This is what happens when you plug-in the Seagate FreeAgent 320GB with it's original NTFS formatted partition. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- USB HD formatted ext3 does not automount. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/127474 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
