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.

Awesome.

> 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
1782 ? 00:01:00 git-annex
20144 pts/0 00:00:00 git-annex-webap
20148 pts/0 00:00:00 git-annex

20528 ? 00:00:02 git-annex
21132 ? 00:00:00 git-annex <defunct>
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.
