Not yet.

If you want to adjust the alias for your needs just redefine the alias via ~/.zshrc.local or /etc/zsh/zshrc.local.

But I'll think about it whether we can use a less static version.

This is what I'm planning to do, yes. (Needs detailed design though because of the several places where rebuildfstab is used.)

Yes, activated via /etc/udev/rules.d/z31_grml_usbdev.rules

Ok. Is the entry OK if you manually run:

# rebuildfstab -v -r -u $USER -g $GROUP

and replace $USER with your username and $GROUP with the groupname of your user?

> Further question, why is rebuildfstab called twice?

Because the udev-rule KERNEL=="sd[a-z]*" matches the disk *and* each of its partitions. Thinking about it, "sd[a-z]" should be OK as well.

Yep, that works.
