Comment 3 for bug 48118

ok this may be your intention but what about inserting a normal hard drive in your system which contains a ready set up filesystem with lots of data. which the installer obviously could not detect. or a CF card on the ide bus. Or the user has no nerves to configure all partititions and mountpoints during setup which is no the easiest part for a linux newbie. And in my opinion if there is any partitition in a system it has to be mountable at all. Even the live cd isn't able to mount a Partitition on a System if i want to access the Data there. And the So called "Drive-Setup"- Tools in Ubuntu have no opportunity to make the activation of a specific Partitition permanent. Until these tools are not able to modify my fstab easily pmount shouldn't refuse to mount nonremovable drives without fstab entry.
