Just as I thought. Thanks everyone!

If someone can point me to the right direction,  I wouldn't mind to try and fix this.

In KDE I now get an error when I try to access the NTFS 500GB drive:
Quotehal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000

To get the disk to mount in KDE try: right click on the drive, select Properties -> Mounting, and uncheck "Mount as user".

Users / USB HDDs change device names upon restart
April 20, 2008, 06:08:37 AM
Hi,

I've been playing with LinuxMCE for over a week now, and I am generally very impressed. Here is the problem that I am having:

I have 3 external USB HDDs of various capacities holding my media (in linuxMce directory structure). Upon install I am prompted to use the drives. My drives are added to the device tree, and for e.g. they have the following block device names:

/dev/sdb1
/dev/sdc1
/dev/sdd2

LiniuxMce scans my media, I am able to browse, play, etc. All is great, until I restart the core. Upon restart I am again prompted to add the same drives, as they are now present with different device names, for e.g.:

/dev/sdb2
/dev/sdf1
/dev/sdg2

I can delete the old entries for the device tree, but it is just annoying having to rescan the whole collection. I am guessing as kubuntu changes the device names for the USB drives, the mount script (btw. which one is it?) does not identify the disks correctly.

Has anyone had this issue? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
