[SOLVED] Mount Internal & external HDD

I can't find a way to mount my internal and external HDD, i have a fresh installed arch x64 with xfce4 i thought i could resolve installing  ntfs-3g ntfsprogs and udisks but it didn't, there are no drives in /media and if i plug a usb hdd thunar doesn't detect it though i installed the mounting function.

I just want to see my HDD in /media and thunar to autodetect usb plugged in hdd

Re: [SOLVED] Mount Internal & external HDD

This is my /etc/fstab:


# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file system> <dir>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
tmpfs           /tmp    tmpfs   nodev,nosuid    0       0
UUID=0dd7f52d-c345-4845-9804-14b45342c50a /home ext4 defaults 0 1
UUID=abbd810c-1bec-49bc-8473-01b6bfdc584c /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
UUID=c0196448-46ac-4ef3-b2d7-32b54fb99adb swap swap defaults 0 0
UUID=e68d8fb5-aace-4977-9842-a2ef9ebb8de5 / ext4 defaults 0 1

As you can see no other HDD besides Arch's is detected

This is my rc.conf:

This my xinitrc:

exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch startxfce4

Re: [SOLVED] Mount Internal & external HDD

Can you mount it by hand?
If you want to mount an internal drive, you can include it in the fstab.

<wild guessing>
Is your user in the storage group?
Have you tried installing gvfs?
</wild guessing>


Edit: You pasted a "screenshot" of nano reading your rc.conf, but it doesn't show the whole file :-)
Edit 2: How exactly do you start xfce?

Re: [SOLVED] Mount Internal & external HDD

EDIT: installing gvfs made and rebooting made everything work like a charm!

Re: [SOLVED] Mount Internal & external HDD

Please edit your post.
When pasting code, please use [ code ] tags https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode

like this

It makes the code more readable and more convenient to scroll through.


Edit: What's the output of 'fdisk -l'?
