I use mc from a konsole to do my file browsing. I'm quite comfortable
with using mount & umount from the command line as needed. I really
dislike finding filesystems already mounted when I expressly set them up
with the noauto option in my /etc/fstab. How can I stop it from
happening?

I'd actually prefer a root command line solution that will
make it impossible for kde to turn automounting back on.

In case it matters, I boot to runlevel 3 and start kde via startx as
needed.

I ran into the exact same thing last night. A file system marked
"noauto" was mounted at boot time. I had to comment out the line
in /etc/fstab and hack around the problem (put something in rc.local)
but it's a royal hack, not a solution.
