Unfortunately the Mageia 4 installer is what it is, so it can't be fixed.  If this is still the case in Cauldron, it could be fixed before Mageia 5.  Perhaps something to look for when the Beta comes out.
Comment 2 Doug Laidlaw 2014-10-14 01:25:22 CEST
OK David.  I will be installing the Beta when it comes back, and will report then.  I believe that flash drives shouldn't be in fstab at all.
