Ok, it works for you. 

But "man fstab-sync" says:

|      By  default, the /usr/share/hal/fdi/90defaultpolicy/storage-policy.fdi
|      file specifies the policy - this file should never be  edited  by  the
|      system  administrator  as  it  might  get updated by the OS vendor for
|      security updates. Instead, system- or site-specific rules can  be  put
|      in the /usr/share/hal/fdi/95userpolicy directory.
