hardcode supermountEdit the rcS file, usually found at
/opt/pxes-0.6/stock/dist/etc/init.d/rcS

Look for the part below:
#
# Configure local devices and services
#
bootmsg 'Configuring local devices...'

...and insert the following 4 lines after the 'bootmsg' line:
#hardcode supermount hack
LOCAL_FLOPPY_ENABLED=1
SUPERMOUNT_ENABLED=1
#end hardcode supermount hack

If you want CD-rom you'll probably have to add a line like this after
LOCAL_FLOPPY_ENABLED=1
LOCAL_DVDCDROM_ENABLED=1

After doing this the drives will always be enabled with supermount.

Disclaimer: This solution is not for everyone - we use it because all
clients have flopppy drives and we always want them supermounted.

Ben.

  Hi again

  Thanks for info on how to get supermount to work with ICA, although I
still don't get it.

  Exactly how is it possible to hardcode supermount on?

  Regards Harald

  You need to patch one of the files to get supermount to work with ICA.
This was discussed around Oct 4.

  The file is the rcS in the PXES tree, diff output from one of the e-mails
below, or my quick and dirty alternative is to hardcode supermount on (as we
always use it).

  I have been using PXES for some time as a means to get old PCs up as
ICA-clients. Version 0.5.1 works beautifully after having done some minor
modifications. After upgrading to version 0.6.4, however, sound does not
work, and I am no longer able to automount floppies and CD-roms.

  Has anyone on this list experience with these issues?

  regards
  Harald Hjønnevåg
