0 - to disable (manual mounting of all removable devices).


1 - to enable it or, '' (automatic mounting of all removable devices)


'magicdev' - to enable it for all removable devices except CD-ROM / DVD types.

If the floppy device is not always using a FAT / VFAT file system, then you have to disable the use of Supermount. The default is to use Supermount for all removable media (cdrom , floppy, zip) that the installer detects in your system.

You can always modify the /etc/fstab file after installation as required.



During a normal GUI based install, the ability to select / deselect Supermount can be adjusted by clicking the MORE button on the disk partitioning display and then select / deselect the button 'Removable media automounting'.





Using 'magicdev' may be a better choice if you have a CD-RW or DVD-RW device(s) installed.
