hi every body
i have linux and it drives me crazy
i want to make partitions mounted automatically
and when i connect a slave hard
i mount it my self is there any solution to make partitions mounted automatically (since windows mount drives automatically)

To mount drives automatically you put an entry in /etc/fstab. Search for fstab on linuxquestions and you will get lots of threads on this subject. Or do a "man fstab" but that will be rather confusing for a newbie.

Use automounter so that it can connect and mount it see an example using autofs http://www.cyberciti.biz/nixcraft/vi...ount-linux.php

can i make a programme with shell to automatically mount when i open the pc

That would be the titopoquito solution No need to write any script.

but i still need to mount them automatically

And the solution has been given 3 times now.....

There are a variety of ways by which "things happen when you start up," or "when you log in."

When the computer starts up, or shuts down, it executes a series of commands found in (e.g.) /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/. See man init for more details on this: your system may vary. It's one way that you can cause things to happen when you first turn on the computer.

The automounter, as mentioned, can handle tasks like auto-mounting hard drives. It affects the entire system. It is possible to have the system auto-load any kernel modules that may be required by a particular device.

The cron and anacron daemons run all the time, doing things on a specified schedule. See their man-pages for more details. On my system, scripts in places like /etc/cron.daily are executed that way.

As far as "when I open the case or close the case on my desktop," that I don't know. It can be done, of course...

Finally, when you log in, a startup-script such as .bashrc is executed. You normally don't see that file in your home directory because its name begins with a period "." which means that it's hidden. (Use ls -a to see them.) Similar scripts are available for when you log-out. Desktop environments such as kde and gnome provide their own facilities, which execute as you enter and leave a graphic session.


Hope this helps clear things up!

and this is for my hard disk what about other disks that a i use them when my friends come to my home
i still need to mount them automatically

This would be handled by hotplug.

In Mandriva for example, you enable supermount, and enable hotplug on boot.

After that, any hot-plugged storage you use gets detected by hotplug, which automatically creates a new line in /etc/fstab using supermount (hence automatically mounted).

When you unplug the device, hotplug automatically detects this, and removes the line in /etc/fstab.

Why don't you update your profile. TheYinYeti wrote about Mandriva, "for example" -- if you don't tell us the distribution you are using you can't get a definite answer. You couldn't tell "I have to change the [insert any car part here] in my car -- please help" and resist on asking and asking again and not giving any info. It does matter which distro you're using, like it matters which car you're driving.

i use suse9.3 and fedora3
