Harddrive not there but there?

Hi,
i noticed that my 2 internal harddrives are mounted within the system (i can see them with DF) but they do not show up with Dolphin (running KDE Suse 11.3).
Now i added them manually. Might be that a bug or did i something wrong at installation?
Just wondering. Thats my only issues really. Otherwise release is great. :slight_smile:

Why not show us your /etc/fstab file. This is where you would mount a partition to show up automatically each time you startup openSUSE. Also, you can run Yast / Partitioner and elect to mount any partition not already mounted. Right click on the partition on the left pane and pick edit. The Format option will not be selected by default. Enter a mount point and say OK. If the folder does not exist it will be created for you and it will be added to your fstab file as well.

Thank You,

Ok, thats my fstab.
The funny thing is, with 11.2 everything was there with installation. With 11.3 my harddrives are missing. Well, not really just on the desktop.
I did the partitioner yesterday, but that did not brought the HDD back on the desktop. Like i said, there are there. I can see and access them via the terminal, but just not via desktop.

I found the culprit.

In the KDE menu there is an advance menu. Removable Devices and there is a box for automount.

The default is for them not to auto mount, but they should still have been visible in โ€˜Placesโ€™
