CDEmu specify mount folder?
by rup1034 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6KSYV)
I have just installed a nifty program CDEmu but after a bunch of tinkering and finally getting it working it seems like every time I mount a disk iso it creates a /home/user/run/NAME_OF_CDROM, which does not work well for games which have multiple cdroms or programs that rely on the same working directory when inserting a new disk.
Is there a way to force this program to always use the same mount point no matter what the name of the cdrom is? I mean there is only 1 emulated device setup on my system I do not see why it needs to make a new folder name for every mount. Such as always being /home/user/run/CDROM vs being INSTALL,PLAY,EXPANSION etc.
I thought about just mounting all 3 cdroms and the expansion pack and change my symlink every time it asks for a disk. I assume there has to be some configuration someplace so that user mounted file systems mount where I expect them to be.
I also have a problem where if I unmount a disk sometimes mounting a new iso picks the folder name of the previous disk and no files show up at all no matter what I do or how many times I unmount/remount.
This also happens with hard disk drives when I put in a external usb and it makes a user mount folder, then sometimes removing the usb drive and inserting a different usb drive will mount and have a empty folder with the name of the previous hard disk I had plugged in. Sometimes this fixes by unplugging closing every dolphin window then plugging a drive back in but is random when it occurs. I also did click eject to remove properly.
