Hi,

I get the "only root can unmount" error when unmounting dvd:

As me:

tong at helios:~$ mount /mnt/dvd

tong at helios:~$ mount | grep /dvd
/dev/scd2 on /mnt/dvd type udf (ro,nosuid,nodev,utf8)

tong at helios:~$ umount /mnt/dvd
umount: only root can unmount /dev/dvd from /mnt/dvd

$ grep -B1 dvd /etc/fstab
# Added by GRML
/dev/dvd /mnt/dvd auto user,noauto,exec,ro 0 0

The solution is rather simple, change the mount point from under /mnt to under
/media in grml-rebuildfstab.

Details at thread
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.user/340043

PS. Get Error: property topic: 'grml-rebuildfstab' is not a keyword.
when try to set property.
