Go in /root/.startmount (hidden folder) and delete everything except config
Hopefully that will fix things, although if the drives are probing correctly old info should be overwritten, maybe you should set the preferences back to default (all checkboxes unchecked) until you get sorted.

Startmount-0.5.5 into puppeee4.4r2
drive sdb3 mounts but the desktop link to a file in the partition wont link.
even after the rox folder is opened. didnt happen before with manual mount of partition sdb3. two partitions are startmounted sdb2 and sdb3.

manual mount mounts the sdb3 as /mnt/operaext3
while startmount mounts sdb3 as /mnt/sdb3

I've got a fresh USB thumbdrive install (just 2 dasy old) and just installed virtualbox. Want the" mount" for the hdds of the virtual machines.
Thanks in advance...

modified from the drive tray chunk of jwm_menu_create - will mount everything with a mountable partition
Code: | #!/bin/sh
for UEVENT in /sys/dev/block/*/uevent ; do
. $UEVENT
case ${DEVNAME:0:2} in
sd|hd) REMOVABLE="0" NOTSWAP="1" LOGICAL=1
[ -e ${UEVENT//uevent/"../removable"} ] && read REMOVABLE <${UEVENT//uevent/"../removable"}
[ $REMOVABLE = 1 ] && ICON=usbdrv48.png || ICON=drive48.png #possibly have something here for devicehandler?
#logical partitions have a size of 2
read LOGICAL <${UEVENT//uevent/size}
LINE=""
while read LINE || [ "$LINE" ]; do
case $LINE in
"/dev/"$DEVNAME*)NOTSWAP=""
esac
done < /proc/swaps
[ ${DEVTYPE} = "partition" ] && [ $NOTSWAP ] && [ ! $LOGICAL = 2 ] && mkdir -p /mnt/$DEVNAME && busybox mount /dev/$DEVNAME /mnt/$DEVNAME;;
mm) [ ${DEVTYPE} = "partition" ] && mkdir -p /mnt/$DEVNAME && busybox mount /dev/$DEVNAME /mnt/$DEVNAME;;
sr|fd)mkdir -p /mnt/$DEVNAME && busybox mount /dev/$DEVNAME /mnt/$DEVNAME;;
esac

Thanks for writing this brilliant program ; -)
Shame it doesn't seem to be included in Slacko or in its repository.
it would be handy if a link in usr/local/bin was included to
/usr/local/Startmount/Startmount

hi johofman - have you created a pup save file for your installation?

mounting linux file systems on lupu-528.005 |
|
Smartmount 0.5.5 on lupu-528.005 mounts ntfs but linux partitions doesn't..
Seems this issue occurs only on lupu.
Tested on a flash install of lupu-528.005.
I made a test program on the /etc/rc.local.
Code: | mkdir -p /mnt/sdd1
echo "First try: mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1"
mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1 && echo "Success." || echo "Fail."
echo "Second try: mount -t ext3 /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1"
mount -t ext3 /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1 && echo "Success." || echo "Fail." |
Rebooted. /tmp/bootstsinit.log wrote: | First try: mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
Fail.
Second try: mount -t ext3 /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1
Success. |

Same test on Slacko-5.3.3-pae. It mounts at the first try.
/tmp/bootstsinit.log wrote: | First try: mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1
Success.
Second try: mount -t ext3 /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1
mount: /dev/sdd1 already mounted or /mnt/sdd1 busy
mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdd1 is already mounted on /mnt/sdd1
Fail. |

startmount on lupu-528.00 |
|
BTW, the lupu-528.005 has /usr/bin/startmount which is a copy of /usr/local/Startmount/Startmount, but it doesn't work.
It should be:
Code: | #!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/Startmount/Startmount |

using startmount 0.5.5
I swapped the harddrive into another computer. To get startmount to open up I had to delete-
/root/.startmount/drive.config
Is there anyway startmount could still load up, but tell you the error that the drive config is different to what it expect?
---
really useful prog btw

Hello,
Here are startfunc, Startmount files (0.5.5 release) localized with gettext and modified to run with gtkdialog4 (icons menus and buttons were not displayed properly), to be copied inside /usr/local/Starmount in replacement of the original ones. pot file to create po and mo files and French po and mo files (this one has to be copied inside /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/).
Cordialement.
