Bug#245898: Three entries for the same CD-ROM in fstab
I just did an install using beta 4 of debian-installer and I also ran
into this bug. I actually ended up with *three* entries in /etc/fstab
for my CD-ROM /dev/hdc:
andre@sledgehammer:~$ grep cdrom /etc/fstab
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdd /media/cdrom1 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdc /cdrom iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
The device /dev/hdd is my CD-RW drive and that one was correctly only
added once. I used /dev/hdc during installation, if that is relevant.
Here are all the CD-ROM related directories that were created for me:
andre@sledgehammer:~$ ls -ld /cdrom*
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 2004-05-05 17:36 /cdrom
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 2004-05-05 17:36 /cdrom0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 2004-05-05 17:36 /cdrom1
andre@sledgehammer:~$ ls -ld /media/cdrom*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2004-05-05 14:51 /media/cdrom
-> cdrom0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 2004-05-05 14:51 /media/cdrom0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 2004-05-05 14:51 /media/cdrom1
See the attached image for the affect this has on GNOME's "Computer"
view in Nautilus; I end up with 4 CD's instead of two.
