well I hacked around last night and came up with this:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
#find the "# Added by KNOPPIX" line
grep -A 1 "KNOPPIX" etc/fstab | grep dev | cut -c1-9 > drivelist
# read a line at a time
cat drivelist | while read line;
do
# increment a variable for sequential mount points
let "a += 1"
# make mountpoint
mkdir -p "/scanmount/drive"$a
# now mount that drive
mount ${line} /scanmount/drive$a
done
but it doesn't work, I have to give it a fs type, which is more difficult because I have to search for all the letters between the 2nd and 3rd blank spaces on the same line to populate a fs type variable, and I can't seem to figure out how to get grep/sed/awk to do that, ideas? If I can figure that out, then I have to write something that will only mount if that mountpoint is either ntfs, fat16 or fat32. I'm really starting to enjoy the power of bash scripts, though I'm still pretty new to it, it's amazing what you can do

halmount
halmount(1) User Commands halmount(1)NAME
halmount - mount and umount filesystems via hal
SYNOPSIS
halmount [OPTIONS]... <device|label> [mountpoint]
halmount -u [OPTIONS]... <device|label|mountpoint>
halmount -e [OPTIONS]... <device|label|mountpoint>
DESCRIPTION
halmount can mount and umount filesystems via hal. Hotpluggable devices and media such as USB sticks and CD-ROMs are typically not entered
into /etc/fstab and are therefore not mountable by normal users via the mount(8) command. Instead hal provides methods to mount and umount
such devices.
Additionally it's also possible to eject devices. For devices like USB sticks eject means the device cannot be mounted again until the
stick is re-plugged, ie a "save remove" feature.
OPTIONS -t TYPE
specify the file system type to use
-o OPTIONS
specify mount options
-v verbose listing of devices
-u umount specified device
-e umount and eject specified device
-a perform requested mount/umount/eject operation all available devices
--listudi
list UDIs of devices, useful for debugging
EXAMPLES
halmount
list all mountable devices known to hal
halmount /dev/hdc
mount device hdc on default mount point (/media/volumelabel)
halmount /dev/hdc cdrom
mount device hdc on /media/cdrom
halmount -u "Holiday Pictures"
umount device that has the label "Holiday Pictures"
