[SOLVED] Gnome automount without GDM

Hello, newbie Arch user here. Love the distro and the philosophy :]

That said, I dislike having to wait for GDM to load. It doesn't seem very Arch to run a program just to log in (as this is my personal computer,) but I don't know how to configure gnome to automount without GDM handling the permissions. Would someone be able to point me to a place where I can enlighten myself?

Re: [SOLVED] Gnome automount without GDM

That was what I needed, thank you for the quick reply.

I was about to ask why that wasn't in the Beginner's Guide, but of course it was and I must have skimmed over it >.< Sorry I'm a bad newbie.

Thanks again.
