I located the script "mount.sh"

The code is very clean and elegant. It works great.

I found that what does not is to run the script when you press the button to "Hen" to mount unit.

Any suggestions?

Try disabling "start filemanager on mounting" option in h-e-n GUI. I seem to recall there's been a bug that did exactly that, it failed to call the mount script when this option been enabled - thought it got squished some releases ago.

cheers

Thank you.

Try to see if I can modify the script to run it to open the file browser to mount the partition.

By the way, since I started to use (properly) new, improved joerg_rw's booston, I have yet to see *any* (well, in fact, I hope to *not* see it ;P ) problem with enabling hostmode. It just work all the time, at first attempt, no matter what I connect.

I don't know if it's due to booston, or I just become skilled at timing while connecting - or both

- but I think it's worth reporting, anyway.

I wonder how happy these scientist are when the usb port of their N900 drops out and they are offered to take a E7 as a replacement because N900 can't be fixed and they can't get a replacement N900 because these are not manufactured anymore

Thanks joerg, I'm keeping my thumbs for this. As side note, I would encourage you to re-consider Your opinion about BFS kernel - it is not some "new" project, popped out yesterday, but respected, long-term effort. You know I'm not coder, but I'm sure iDont got serious reasons for keeping it as separate project (while many BFS patches were already implemented in kernel-power, in meantime). You can check it here (pre-official-release discussion):
