%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ gnome-mount The instructions on this page are not complete. This page will be finished ASAP. The dependencies are probably correct, but the build instructions have not been confirmed. This page is being added now because it is referenced by another GNOME page, which causes validation issues. The gnome-mount package contains programs for mounting, unmounting and ejecting storage devices. The goal for gnome-mount is to get the appropriate GNOME software (such as gnome-volume-manager and GNOME-VFS) to use this instead of invoking mount/umount/eject or direct HAL invoking methods. All the gnome-mount programs utilize the methods on HAL and as such run unprivileged. The rationale for gnome-mount is to have a centralized place (in GConf) where settings (e.g., mount options and mount locations) are maintained.
