How can I stop auto mounting in Fedora 10?

[cola]

Hello.
When I entered in Fedora 10 for the first time after installing it I got no drives mounted.
Clicking My Computer then clicking others drives and giving the root password I got every drives mounted.
After this every time enter in Fedora 10 I got those drives automatically mounted.

Would someone please tell me how can I stop automatically mounting drives?

please only make 1 Thread, i trashed your other thread you deleted

try /etc/init.d/haldaemon stop

It didn't work.
After rebooting Fedora 10 all drives are automatically mounted.
Got no option in /etc/fstab as well.
Can someone tell me about this.?pls...........

You dilly. Of course it doesn't work after you reboot! This will just turn off the HAL daemon until it gets restarted by init when you change runlevels or reboot.

If you want to disable HAL permanently, you will have to remove all the "S"
and "K" haldaemon softlinks in the /etc/rc directories (the "runlevel scripts").

It's not hard or dangerous, but you might want to figure out how the fedora runlevel/init system works (I could explain this in <1000 words; google "/etc/init.d" or "/etc/rc.d") and if necessary what a softlink is (<200 words).

To disable HAL execute the following commands:

chkconfig haldaemon off
service haldaemon stop OR reboot

Hello:
From a terminal
polkit-gnome-authorization

and have a look under
Storage

and see if you can edit the Authorizations, which should block the mounting .... I think ?

Running these two commands Fedora 10 hang!
Then I had to go to the rescue mode.
