Hello All,
I'm a creature of habit - I'm used to mounting and unmounting devices using "Disk Management". I got a shock a few days ago when I installed FC3 and wanted to mount my zip drive. When I clicked on Disk Management, I was told that "there were no devices that I was allowed to mount", or something to that effect.
At this point, I thought I was going to edit fstab and despite the comment "This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details", I did edit the fstab file, only to find that the changes didn't "stick". So, I read the man page for fstab-sync, but this wasn't any help. The only fstab-sync file that I could find on my system was:
/etc/hal/device.d/50-fstab-sync.hal, which is a symlink to /usr/sbin/fstab-sync
So what fstab-sync file am I supposed to be editing or am I supposed to create one. Whether I edit a file or create one, what is the format of the line that I am supposed to enter to allow mounting of my floppy, my zip and my CD-RW drive when I click on the "Disk Management" menu choice?
Sure, I can use the KDE disk mounting utility, KwikDisk, but like I said, I'm a creature of habit and I would like to know how to be able to set up disk mounting/unmounting using the Disk Management utility.
Regards,
Colleen
