Supermount is an add on to the kernel.  If you don't want the device to use
supermount remove the option in your /etc/fstab file.

Subject: [techtalk] Redhat 6.1 - cdrom behaviour


Hi All,

I was looking today for about 2 hours on how to disable the automount 
"feature" in RH6.1.  It appears that every time a CD is loaded the 
filemanager pops up showing the contents of the CD.  This is not what I 
would like to see happen.  I would like to manually mount the CD when 
required.  Is there a config file to modify that will disable this?  I have 
had no luck so far searching on my own and was hoping some here could shed 
some light on this.

Thanks

Phil
