As Ed Greshko points out my dyslexia has soured the soup. I saw 1255 but typed 1225 (twice!). That little change may well fix it. I regret the typo. The mount command you used kind of scares me. What I think you wanted to do is to unmount your device located at /dev/sdb1. What you told your system to do was to unmount ALL file systems found in fstab!! It is good that the system will not unmount devices in use, you would have lost it all. To unmount /dev/sdb1 issue: umount /dev/sdb1. Actually I used to contribute to both the Ubuntu and the Fedora lists. I have both on this machine. I tend to use Fedora when connected to the Internet since I believe that it's pretty good implementation of SELinux makes me a bit more secure in this more hostile world. I am glad to see this thread here since many languages are used by those using Fedora. The "messages" are a bit differant though. Here is what happens when I plug in my flash drive: [root@localhost dev]# tail /var/log/messages Dec 25 19:34:35 localhost kernel: sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] 2013184 512-byte hardware sectors (1031 MB) Dec 25 19:34:35 localhost kernel: sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off Dec 25 19:34:35 localhost kernel: sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through Dec 25 19:34:35 localhost kernel: sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] 2013184 512-byte hardware sectors (1031 MB) Dec 25 19:34:35 localhost kernel: sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off Dec 25 19:34:35 localhost kernel: sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through Dec 25 19:34:35 localhost kernel: sdb: sdb1 Dec 25 19:34:35 localhost kernel: sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk Dec 25 19:34:35 localhost kernel: sd 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0 Dec 25 19:34:38 localhost hald: mounted /dev/sdb1 on behalf of uid 500 The last line is hald doing the automount. You may find the command lsusb -v useful. Also (from /dev before and after inserting the flash drive): [root@localhost dev]# ls -l sd* brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 0 2007-12-25 07:20 sda brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 1 2007-12-25 07:20 sda1 brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 2 2007-12-25 07:20 sda2 brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 3 2007-12-25 15:20 sda3 [root@localhost dev]# ls -l sd* brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 0 2007-12-25 07:20 sda brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 1 2007-12-25 07:20 sda1 brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 2 2007-12-25 07:20 sda2 brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 3 2007-12-25 15:20 sda3 brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 16 2007-12-25 19:34 sdb brw-r----- 1 root disk 8, 17 2007-12-25 19:34 sdb1 Well, I am rambling! Did not sleep well last night. After I get joined up on the BibleTime team I will re-join the Ubuntu list. Have Fun! Tod
