the moutpoints are not hard coded as they are different for different
devices


is it written in hald or udev .


they are stored in fdi files...
here is an e.g.

suppose u wanna change the degfault position where ur device is mounted from
the default /media/usbdisk to /media/celunite, it can be done as follows. it
can be done by modifying /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi

<device>
    <match key="info.udi"
string="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_E265_5E6A">
      <merge key="volume.policy.desired_mount_point"
type="string">celeunite</merge>
      <merge key="volume.policy.mount_option.iocharset=iso8859-15"
type="bool">true</merge>
      <merge key="volume.policy.mount_option.sync" type="bool">true</merge>
    </match>
  </device>

i guess that should work...


thanks,
