Hi list.
I have tried to remove (with fstab-sync) settings on fstab for my floppy, bat without results. On fstab-sync man page I have read syntax to remove media, but I don't understand wat's UDI and where I can find it.
---- man fstab-sync ---------------------------------------------------------- fstab-sync --remove=UDI Remove an entry from fstab by giving a HAL Unique Device Identifier ---- man fstab-sync ----------------------------------------------------------
I have tried replacing UDI with
- /dev/fd0
- fd0
- /media/floppy
- floppy
and any cases return to me error on a library.
less /etc/fstab :
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults 1 2 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 LABEL=/usr /usr ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/var /var ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/hdc1 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/hdb /media/cdrom auto pamconsole,ro,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 /dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
THis is confusing. The fstab you post should prevent the floppy mounting at boot . I assume it does not try to mount the CD on boot. In both cases it is the: pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed part of the fstab line that does it. I assume that this clause being on a different line in your post is caused buy wraparound and actually it is on the same line.
I guess not we must ask what makes you think that the system is trying to mount the floppy at boot time?
