The idea is when the "security switch" is "closed" a floppy drive shows up, and you run the security software from there to validate yourself, which opens up the rest of the device as a removable media device. When the switch is "open" both a floppy drive and another removable drive show up. This works as intened in windows, but looks a little strange in linux. It shows as one device, with volumes on/dev/sda1 and/dev/sdb1-3. That sounds really strange, I will get that screen-shot later. > > So, two volumes you may want to mount, both none seperable from the > > device, showing up as two devicesows that for a complictaed > > arrangement? > > hal will create, through a callout, fstab entries for all > non-top-level block devices that is related to the device. g-v-m tries > to mount all of them.

At the moment though, using default hal/gvm setups, I had to add the stuff for gvm to mount the right volume, I did it by playing with udev rules.
