Managing Removable Devices

This tool allows the system administrator to easily control most options which affect the behavior of removable devices such as floppy, CD and DVD disks. Note that all removable devices are automatically made available by default, so users shouldn't have to manually mount medias.

Changing a Parameter

For each device three properties may be changed:

Select the property you wish to change and click on OK. The corresponding dialog will pop up in which you can change your setting. Then click on OK again. The system will then ask you if you want to save the modifications in the /etc/fstab file. By saying yes, you will not have to unmount and re-mount that device.
