Hi, I'm wondering what I need to read about and do to get a USB drive to auto-mount reliably at boot time? I don't know anything about udev so I tried what I thought used to work in my /etc/fstab file but it doesn't work. The drive mounts by hand just fine:
MacMini linux # cat /etc/fstab | grep video /dev/sda1 /video ext3 auto,rw 0 2 MacMini linux # df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda4 75890040 60601600 11433376 85% / udev 10240 164 10076 2% /dev shm 257396 0 257396 0% /dev/shm MacMini linux # mount /dev/sda1 /video MacMini linux # df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda4 75890040 60601604 11433372 85% / udev 10240 164 10076 2% /dev shm 257396 0 257396 0% /dev/shm /dev/sda1 157566568 192068 149370520 1% /video MacMini linux # Must I use udev (and if so how - what do I study to make this work) or can I do this in fstab and I've just forgotten something simple? Also, what's the feeling these days about the reliability of automounting by device? Would I be better to use e2label on the partition? Thanks in advance, Mark
