[GLLUG] Mounting All Partitions!

[Chick Tower]

Which is exactly what I did, and it listed about a dozen real, mounted 
partitions.  It's possible I did that after running PCManFM, but I know 
I didn't click on all the visible partitions.  I know I ran df -h and I 
ran PCManFM and saw a ton of partitions, and in PCManFM I probably 
clicked on one to see if it was actually mounted, but I don't remember 
if I ran them during the same login or in what order.  That desktop PC 
is 500 miles away now.

I'm just trying to narrow down my search for an answer.  If it's not 
default Ubuntu behavior (Lucid Lynx), then I'll try the scanty Bodhi 
forums.  It's not a big problem, as I don't plan to use Bodhi on my 
desktop PC, and the laptop I have it installed on has but / and swap 
partitions on it, and I do want them mounted every time.  It's mostly 
just annoying, but I don't consider it safe or sane behavior.

I'm beginning to think the programmers designing our new GUIs were 
raised on Microsoft Bob and thought Clippy was ingenious.  And yesterday 
I read that Canonical wants to do away with menus, relying upon fuzzy 
logic to determine what your text or voice input reveals about your 
intentions.
