Hi all,
I use Dired as my file manager, and I copy things to and from flash
drives pretty often. It would be quite convenient to have an option to
open the mounted drive in Dired without manually going a bit deeply in
the directory hierarchy. Is there anything like this for Emacs already?
(If not, I'm more than happy to code it myself, I just don't want to
reinvent a wheel.)
TIA,

There's discomfort[1] for mounting drives via udisks (and opening
mounted drives). Is that what you're looking for?

Hm. I guess the desktop environment's automounter is already mounting
the thing, so perhaps discomfort might come too late. Perhaps Marcin
can give more details on what's going on and what the actual problem
is?
Cheers

Hello,
