I have read that ubuntu (and pretty much any linux running 2.6.18 and

believe the power save feature cuts it in half, so a few devices, such
as wireless cards, external hard drives, thumbdrives, and a few other
devices may not work. What i ended up doing to get around that was to
create 99-custom.rules in the /etc/udev/rules.d directory. I dont think
that showing mine as an example would be a good idea because mine is
used for my usb wireless device


Although that doesn't explain this particular error (an illegal mount
point has nothing to do with power requirements), I would be interested
in the rule you created.


The illegal mount point appears to be caused by a syntax error in some
file which governs the mounting process. If the file can be found and
the error corrected or eliminated I hope the problem will be solved.
