Greetings,
I was just minding my own business the other day when I decided to
write a file to my floppy drive using FC3. Much to my surprise the
icon I always found under "computer" was gone. Looked in /etc/fstab
and found no reference. I had just used it 2 weeks ago. Could an
update have removed it for some reason? The same thing happened to
my other FC3 box. What is the exact entry I need to put this back
into /etc/fstab?
Thanks,
Steve
Yes, same issue here on fc3 :-( I found the culprit to be the Jul
15th kernel 2.6.12-1.1372_FC3 update. Surprisingly, it's not an
selinux issue, as rebooting with selinux disabled, makes no
difference. Reverting back to the previous kernel, kernel
2.6.11-1.35_FC3, corrected the problem for me. BTW, notice below, the
size difference between these two kernels. Almost 11Mb!!
