With automount v4, I could have a line like
/passport -fstype=ext3,noatime / /dev/passport1 \
/usr /dev/passport3 \
/src /dev/passport4
in a file /etc/auto.removable
The passport is an external usb drive. The devices
/dev/passport[1-4] are udev remappings of /dev/sda[1-4]
(say)
With automount v4, when I did
ls /passport/
Then the 3 partitions would be mounted under /passport.
/dev/passport1 -> /passport/
/dev/passport3 -> /passport/usr
/dev/passport4 -> /passport/src
With automount v5 this no longer works. I get "No such file
or directory", with no error messages in the logs. I get the
same response if I use the orginal devices (eg /dev/sda1),
showing that udev isn't causing the problem.
With google, I couldn't find any examples of multi-mounting
usb drives, although there are many examples of
multi-mounting nfs drives.
Anyone know how to multimount usb drives with automount v5?
Thanks Joe
