+> Sounds like you set up the repository yourself, rather than letting the assistant do it.
+> If so, it won't be in direct mode. You can git annex assistant--stop,
+> and then git annex direct to enable direct mode.
+
+I added like this:
+0. no git-annex or git-annex-assistant is running
+1. create directory (/mnt/dxd/annex)
+2. launch git-annex-assistant
+3. add repository via the webbrowser
+4. copy a file over this(/mnt/dxd/annex) directory (via command line or nautilus)
+
+The file is replaced with symlink.
+
+This fix the issue:
+0. stop git-annex-assistant
+1. Go in the shell to that directory (cd /mnt/dxd/annex)
+2. switch to direct mode (/home/looser/Desktop/download/git-annex.linux/git-annex direct)
+3. start git-annex-assistant
+4. create a new repository(/mnt/dxd/annex2) via the webbrowser (add repository in top right corner)
+5. Now:
+/mnt/dxd/annex - NOT in direct mode (symlinks created instantly)
+/mnt/dxd/annex2 - in direct mode
+
+Im really happy I have finally direct mode running.
+I will surely stress-test git-annex in the coming weeks.
+
+> Restart/shutdown in the UI coming soon, I think.
+
+Awesome.
+
+> The entire git-annex configuration, include that of the assistant,
+> is stored in the .git/config of your reposository, and on its git-annex branch.
+> Deleting the repository is thus all that's needed to start over.
+
+Thank you for the answer.

+Usecase:
+Keep two directories in sync on the same computer.
+
+\"Removable drive\" almost covers this, except you need an usb thumbdrive
+permanently plugged into the computer.
+
+Would be nice, if I could select a \"sync to this local folder\" option
+alongside the \"Select drive:\" option.
+
+So it is my choice if I want to sync to a partition or to a folder.
+
+Bug(?):
+I created two repositories:
+/mnt/dxd/annex
+/mnt/dxd/annex2
+
+And I added a \"Removable drive\" syncing option to /mnt/dxd/annex2, and I selected the \"/mnt/dxd\" drive as removable drive.
+The two repositories got mixed together
+(ie. broken symlinks pointing to nonexistent .git/annex/objects/.. file)
+
+Best,
+ Laszlo

+Ok, I think I figured it out. I have quit from git-annex-assistant (Ctrl-C in terminal window).
+
+And launched this command:
+$ ps -e |grep git-ann

+20528 ? 00:00:02 git-annex

+
+I will be more cautious in future.

+another problem:
+1. If you add a removable drive via the gui, you can not remove it anymore (from the gui)
+2. If you delete the directory on the removable drive, git-annex assistant silently fails
+to recreate the directory and start fresh.
+2/a. on the gui, there is no indication something is wrong with the removable drive repository
+2/b on the terminal it shows only this:
+fatal: Not a git repository: '/mnt/dxd/annex/.git'
+
+On the main page it shows the two repositories, but on the upper right corner, the dropdown menu
+contains only the original repository and not the removeable drive repository.
+
+I stop spaming now...

+Can not withstand myself.
+
+1. If you add a Removable drive repository, only the *new* files are copied over to the removable drive.
+2. Removable drive repository is not in direct mode.
+Would be nice if it could be kept the same mode as the original repository.
+It is some kind of special repsoitory, I do not see any seemlinks either.
