Automount internal drives

By | 29 Aug 2008

According to Only Ubuntu, to enable auto-mounting of internal drives on bootup, edit the file /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi and change the line

<merge key="storage.automount_enabled_hint" type="bool">false</merge>Code language: HTML, XML (xml)

to this:

<merge key="storage.automount_enabled_hint" type="bool">true</merge>Code language: HTML, XML (xml)

From now on, internal drives should appear on your Desktop.
