External USB Drive and gnome-volume-manager

I'm trying to get gnome-volume-manager to automount my drive when it's plugged in /turned on however gnome-volume-manager gives me the following error

manager.c/1565: mounting /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_79a0b497_b423_4d4e_827b_9bb7c4f28739...
manager.c/1693: mount failed for /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_79a0b497_b423_4d4e_827b_9bb7c4f28739: /dev/sda1 found in /etc/fstab

The drive is in /etc/fstab and `mount /dev/sda1` works properly, so does `pmount /dev/sda1` and `pmount-hall /dev/sda1`. I couldn't find anything usefull on google or in these forums on this particular problem. Can anyone give me some guidance?

Re: External USB Drive and gnome-volume-manager

read the damn error!

g-v-m doesn't want it to be in the fstab, put an # in front of it and it should be fine.

Re: External USB Drive and gnome-volume-manager

I want it to be in fstab so I can still mount it normally and control the mount point. There seem to be plenty of other people on the forum who have devices in fstab and gnome-volume-manager still mounts them fine.
