PostPosted: Tue 26 Oct 2010, 22:59    Post subject:  Mount_all3: bash script automounts drives at startup
Subject description: Place it in /root/Startup. No user interaction		  
this is a script I wrote to auto mount drives at start up
and then place the folders mounted on the desktop

make it executable and
place it in /root/Startup no user interaction


cd and dvd drives are not mounted

the writing to the desktop was tricky generating a new PuppyPin
for whatever drives you have and doing all this without it being event driven fully automatic




if you notice that the code to mount and draw to the desktop is very compact and doesnt use any of these listed below
pmount
gtkdialog
eventmanager
partprobe,
probedisk and a few other small scripts/apps that are used while mounting



special features will be added
here's a nice little trick if you used my code in the mount_all3
a file got generated called PuppyPin-old
so if you need or want to toggle off the folder icons you could by doing this code snip

Code:
rox --pinboard=/root/Choices/ROX-Filer/PuppyPin-old


and to get the folders back again
Code:
rox --pinboard=/root/Choices/ROX-Filer/PuppyPin



MOUNT_ALL3

Code:

#!/bin/bash

# call it  mount_all3 updated 11-06-2010 Joe Arose
# auto_mount all drives non cd and dvd
# now if you  have to mount stuff from the command line only  here's  one
# don't unmount a drive that has your save file !
# this doesnt depend on xdialog

# added folders to be auto drawn and updated on the desktop
# with auto generating of the xml PuppyPin depending
# on whichever drives are used note that this is not event driven
# it is meant to be placed in /root/Startup so there is no user interaction
# major changes in how a list of drives is generated and multiple
# screen displays are detected

# special thanks to aragon for this code snip below to detect the width and height
#SCW=`xwininfo -root | grep '\geometry' | cut -f4 -d ' ' | cut -f1 -d 'x'`
#SCH=`xwininfo -root | grep '\geometry' | cut -f4 -d ' ' | cut -f2 -d 'x' | cut -f1 -d '+'`

# this started as a special request for abushcrafter for something simple to auto mount
# then grew into writing to the desktop  also with multiple screen sizes

# thanks for catching the loop error  amigo

hi big_bass,

i know you know but maybe it saves some seconds:

Code:
SCW=`xwininfo -root | grep '\geometry' | cut -f4 -d ' ' | cut -f1 -d 'x'`
SCH=`xwininfo -root | grep '\geometry' | cut -f4 -d ' ' | cut -f2 -d 'x' | cut -f1 -d '+'`

Hey aragon


I like it Very Happy
a very linux way of doing it and I will use it
thanks

Code:

#!/bin/bash

#
# simple   test  using Xdialog


SCW=`xwininfo -root | grep '\geometry' | cut -f4 -d ' ' | cut -f1 -d 'x'`
SCH=`xwininfo -root | grep '\geometry' | cut -f4 -d ' ' | cut -f2 -d 'x' | cut -f1 -d '+'`
echo "screen width" $SCW x "height" $SCH



Xdialog --title "sceen size check " \
                --infobox "\n screen width $SCW x height $SCH\n" 0 0 4000






the "puppy way" would be to read this file
/etc/videomode

if you notice that the code above to mount and draw to the desktop is very compact and doesnt use any of these listed below
pmount
gtkdialog
eventmanager
partprobe,
probedisk and a few other small scripts/apps that are used while mounting

*I dont like to use "PuppyPin" but on the standard versions I will fix that

special features will be added
here's a nice little trick if you used my code in the mount_all2
a file got generated called PuppyPin-old
so if you need or want to toggle off the folder icons you could by doing this code snip

Code:
rox --pinboard=/root/Choices/ROX-Filer/PuppyPin-old


thanks aragon

Another small thing, Joe. I wouldn't mount the drives as 'loop' mounts since they are real partitions. Mounting them with the 'loop' option will disable any DMA access to the drives. 'loop' is only needed for partition images which you are filtering out of the list.

Hey amigo!

Thanks I'll fix it and remove the "loop" I recycled a snip of code from my dragNdrop SFS mounter a cut and paste Embarassed

Thanks for catching that and taking the time to post

as always any suggestions are always very welcomed
I am adding the correct file system checking for the mount
thanks
Joe

The new version is a big improvement with the refreshing of "PuppyPin". So I have commented out the separate drive icon code. There is one big bug though. The puppy home partition drive icon has the wrong icon and when clicked on give me three Rox-Filer windows. Two are at "/mnt/sda1" the other one is at "/initrd/mnt/dev_save".

big_bass wrote:
this started as a special request
I know and I am very gratefully.

Perhaps the simplest thing would be some thing like this:
This only works with drive partition icons enabled to my knowledge.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
# Half the code is from the "mount_all2" script by "big_bass"

#----------------------------------------
# generate  /tmp/list_of_drives
#----------------------------------------
#to be safe remove out the loop mounted stuff and the swap partion if there is one from the list
blkid  | egrep '(hd|sd)' | egrep -v "/dev/loop*" | egrep -v "swap" | cut -f 1 -d ':' | sed 's/\/dev\///'>/tmp/list_of_drives

for drive in  `cat /tmp/list_of_drives` ; do
   #Insert code here for extracting "args" parameter of drive partition icons from "/root/Choices/ROX-Filer/PuppyPin" and setting it to the variable "$driveargs".

   /root/.pup_event/drive_$drive/AppRun "$driveargs"
done

ok here is the latest version 3
I will update the first post

I had to go about this differently to get the correct mount command
for each drive

@Hey vovchik good to hear from you

*mount does well guessing a linux partition but not for fat and ntfs correctly
if you find something that needs adjusting let me know this is working correctly for me

Bonjour à tous,
Very good job. I tested version 3 in Quirky 1.3.0,
It works wonderfully.
But there is still a part of the bug which abushcrafter was talking about in previous post.

well the conflict is in the / root/.pup_event/drive_hda1/AppRun
in your case sda1

*I dont know if the AppRun in your version differs than mine so I posted just the code
I added starting with the single plus"+" sign starting on line 186

what happens there is every thing gets mounted thats why the three folders
caused by the AppRun code (non related to the code I wrote)

I have to really dig in that and make a filter for any drives getting mounted in more than one place in the AppRun and have it select only one

I got a simple test working but needs to be improved if even more mounts are present
with the same hard drive number

here's what I got for a temp fix so far (suggestions welcomed)
this does eliminate the problem for me on my box with my drive selection
note :I am running live cd so I dont have a save file

Code:
--- /root/.pup_event/drive_hda1/AppRun-old   2008-10-20 07:12:48.000000000 +0800
+++ /root/.pup_event/drive_hda1/AppRun   2010-10-04 10:14:55.000000000 +0800
@@ -183,7 +183,13 @@ if [ "$FSTYPE" != "" ];then
    [ "`readlink /mnt/home`" = "$MNTPT" ] && MNTPT="/mnt/home"
   fi
   #exec rox -x /mnt/$ONEDRVNAME -d /mnt/$ONEDRVNAME
+  mount | grep "/initrd/mnt/dev_ro2" && mount | grep "/mnt/$ONEDRVNAME"
+  if [[ "$?" == 0 ]];then
+  echo "mounted on more than one place open only one rox folder"
+  exec rox -d /initrd/mnt/dev_ro2
+  else
   exec rox -x $MNTPT -d $MNTPT
+  fi
  fi
 fi
 


I realize your folders are produced with
/initrd/mnt/dev_save


so your fix would be instead using this


Code:

+  mount | grep "/initrd/mnt/dev_save" && mount | grep "/mnt/$ONEDRVNAME"
+  if [[ "$?" == 0 ]];then
+  echo "mounted on more than one place open only one rox folder"
+  exec rox -d /initrd/mnt/dev_save
+  else
   exec rox -x $MNTPT -d $MNTPT
+  fi
  fi
 fi
