I have been able to mount my XFS format magnetic optical
disks under Fedora Core 4 with the following fstab line...
/dev/maxoptix8 /media/optical xfs noauto,rw,user 0 0
and the following udev script...
BUS=="scsi", SYSFS{vendor}=="Maxoptix", NAME{all_partitions}="maxoptix"
While the disk mounts automatically when I double click the optical drive
in the Computer Folder on the deskop, when I click on the mounted optical
drive I only have a Unmount Volume menu item instead of an Eject menu item.
I noticed that for the cdrom which can eject I have...
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
What exactly do I need to change so that Nautilus will allow me to eject the
mounted optical from the dropdown menu?
