Every time I switch my mac on, I get a CD mount called MTN F@stlink. It is very annoying, so I figure their must be a way to get rid of it.
Good news - there is. I thought I'd share my method:
(1) You wanna be a super user in the terminal, so launch the following app:
Mac HD : Applications : Utilities : Terminal
Double-click and type the following ($ is the prompt, don't type that):
At the following prompt, enter your superuser password
Password:
(2) Now, as a super user, first determine the UUID (# is the prompt):
The response includes a line:
Mine was all those zeroes.
(3) Next up, we edit (or create) /etc/fstab:
(4) In emacs (or pico or vm or your favourite command line editor) add the following line:
If you got something other than the zeroes, use that other UUID
(5) Save, exit, restart
(6) No mount point called MTN F@stlink - sweet!
