Automount settings from fstab not respected after Sequoia update

Hi,

For quite some time I was successfully running setup in fstab file (added thorugh vifs) that prevents particular drive from automounting.

This is to solve issue with my monitor, that for some reason has drive on it that can be seen by Mac and whenever I plug / unplug I will get notification about unsafely removed drive...

My previous solution was based on this community post and was working well for few years: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8567057&ved=2ahUKEwijqduJycSJAxW0S_EDHQw5GNsQFnoECBQQAw&usg=AOvVaw35q7jXR1KKnUvFBAWfS2Qh

Unfortunatelly this stopped working after update to Mac OS Sequoia and drives me crazy :<

I have checked that many times - fstab entry is there - I have removed it, then readded, validated drive UUID, type... and nothing works...


Help highly appreciated 🙏
