from your /usr/share/hal/fdi/90systempolicy/storage-policy.fdi but do
note that this may be replaced on hal updates.
A question. If one will drop into /usr/share/hal/fdi/95....
a .fdi file which looks like that fragment above but with
<merge key="storage.policy.should_mount"
type="bool">true</merge>
will be this not an override for whatever happen to be system
defaults?
(right now we may wrongly add entries for block devices stemming
from
IDE RAID controllers, that's partly why we pulled this feature).
As far as I understand this is only one of possible nasty suprises
with "should_mount" set to widely to "true". Some of them we may
yet to see. :-)
OTOH if there would be application allowing 'root' to generate
these XML files without doing that "raw", and while presenting a
clear picture of keys and values, that would be nice.
