Small bug in (automounter+new installer) ...

Hi,
when using automounter on an HD-installed Knoppix (new installer)
you may get mount errors on vfat partitions...
(e.g. "ll /mnt/auto/sda1" pointing to an external usb FAT32 hard disk)
This is because automounter is trying to use "uid=knoppix,gid=knoppix"
options but the user no longer exists!

Workaround:

1) create "knoppix" user

or, better...

2) edit "/etc/automount.sh" and change/remove the line with
    "uid=knoppix,gid=knoppix" with whatever you need...

Sorry if it is an already known bug, at the moment I cannot
open any knoppix site :(

Bye
