[Bug 442130] Re: Custom fstab causes duplicate entries for partitions in Places

 

I can confirm that this bug with the UUID still exists in Ubuntu 11.04
Natty Narwhal.

The Workaround with using "/dev/disk/by-uuid/" instead of "UUID=" does
the trick.

Title:
  Custom fstab causes duplicate entries for partitions in Places

Status in GVFS:
  New
Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  I wanted my disks to automount on startup, but I didnt want to address them directly with device path, since it can change.
  So instead i use the LABEL directive.
  Now each partition is listed twice in Nautilus Places (see screenshot).

  According to a post on ubuntuforums, this issue can also happen if you identify partitions by UUID:

  A workaround is to specify the partitions by /dev/sdXXX paths instead

  
  # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
  proc /proc proc defaults 0 0

  LABEL=ubuntu / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
  UUID=4c604809-286a-4bf3-afd5-d23ff2e5464c none swap sw 0 0

  /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0

  LABEL=mp3       /media/mp3         ext4   users,noauto,noexec,noatime,rw  0 2
  LABEL=tvserier  /media/tvserier    ext4   users,noauto,noexec,noatime,rw  0 3
  LABEL=filmer    /media/filmer      ext4   users,noauto,noexec,noatime,rw  0 4
  LABEL=downloads /media/downloads   ext4   users,noauto,noexec,noatime,rw  0 5
