So I setup /etc/fstab as
/dev/sdc2 /media/mcspicy ntfs-3g users,uid=1000,gid=100,fmask=0113,dmask=002,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0
yet this doesn't automount it. I get a message about "/dev/sdc2" not existing when booting, but cannot find it in the logs. If I login, get to my desktop and run
sudo mount -a
then it mounts and works fine.
Anyone know a solution? It's really annoying when I accidentally start Deluge without running mount -a, and have to recheck most of my torrents

Please post the output of

Hmm...I might have found the problem. Apparently my external has a GUID partition table due to it being formatted on my Macbook. Although it mounts fine when the system is booted, so that doesn't seem like it'd cause problems.

Curious. Can you please tell us the version of Hal and Udev that you have? there seems to be a recent problem with the latest version of those two packages that don't let any NTFS drive automount anymore
Offline
HAL: 0.5.11-4
Udev: 128-5
Those are just from yaourt -Qi hal and udev.

Curious? I'd get mighty curious the day it automounted, and correctly at that... Udev 130 seems to be the cure. Its still doesn't automount correctly (using utf8, that is, at least with KDE).
