To automount USB drive at boot time, I've put in /usr/local/bin/ this:

Quote#! /bin/bash
mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb1 /media/Backup

But it doesn't work. Only after the boot I can run it manually (calling from the Obmenu) and succesfully mount the USB drive. Any guidance?

By the way, am on Lubuntu now, after borking Siduction (probably because of Compton), but will be back with the Razor-Qt release.

you could mount it via fstab entry, use label.

USB-devices get automounted in Razor-qt. Make sure, that the devices manager is working in the panel.

Thanks for replies. (Haven't been notified vie email.)

Last time (a couple of weeks ago) I've tried Razor-qt it hasn't worked, but what I'd really like to have is a Qt-only Openbox system. So I remove all Razor things and use just Openbox.

Anyway I can live with the current glitch if fstab approach doesn't work well.

On a side note, when will Razor-qt edition be released?

Why to hell should boot run a script in /usr/local/bin?

No idea! Have found that googling.

Razor-qt will be released with our upcoming release cycle. Working on it, should not be long.
