<para>MountMan is a tool which helps you manage your mounted
|
|
file systems. Once invoked, it displays a list of every mounted
|
|
file system. For each file system, MountMan displays its name
|
|
(which is the actual device name - &ie;
|
|
<filename class="directory">/dev/fd0</filename> for a
|
|
<hardware>floppy</hardware>), its type (vfat, ext3, ReiserFS ...)
|
|
and its mount point on your system (the directory on which the
|
|
file system is mounted).</para>

<para>MountMan also displays usage information using total size,
|
|
free size, and percentage of available space free. If those
|
|
numbers say
|
|
<guilabel>N/A</guilabel>, that usually means that the file system
|
|
is not mounted. Left clicking on a file system displays a pie chart
|
|
on the left of the window, graphically displaying the usage
|
|
information for the file system. Clicking on a non-mounted
|
|
file system will display
|
|
<guilabel>not mounted</guilabel> instead of the graph.</para>

small menu which displays what actions can be performed on

and eject (if clicking on a removable file system, e.g., a

<note>

|
<para>We plan to expand MountMan in the next evolution of
|
|
&krusader;. It will be able to format floppies, edit
|
|
<filename class="directory">/etc/fstab</filename>, create new
|
|
file systems and more.... By the way, we have started working on
|
|
it, see "Quickmode for MountMan"</para>

|
|
<para>General idea: display a list of all possible mount points.
|
|
Each time the menu is displayed, it determines if a mount point is
|
|
mounted or not and associates the correct action (mount or
|
|
umount). This offers a quick interface to MountMan. It is
|
|
working, and currently uses KMountMan::mount and unmount. It uses
|
|
the new &kde; services for fstab-reading and this will
|
|
enable us to remove a lot of code from the "old" MountMan.</para>
