Re: GUI for mounting drives?

Fedora works really well for mounting removable media on /media and
putting a icon on the desktop, does Fedora have a GUI means of
triggering a similar thing for mounting a fixed disk partition (and
asking for the requisite root password)?

I was looking around for such a thing and couldn't find anything in
pirut that did that.

I did end up cludging something with mount command lines and making
directories but it seemed like there was an easier way to be had by
just extending what happens for removable media.

kwikdisk is a tray applet for KDE that will let you quickly and easily mount
and umount devices that are listed in /etc/fstab. You should first register
them there using the options noauto and users/user.
It also shows the free space in each mounted device, which I find very useful.
