Re: cdrom and zip can't be mounted
I now have the following in /etc/fstab :
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump>
<pass>
/dev/hdb2 / ext2 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hdb1 none swap sw 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda1 /dos vfat defaults,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /floppy auto user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdc /cdrom iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdd4 /zip auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
I think the /zip line isn't correct either - when
mounting a zip file I get this:
/dev/hdd4: Input/output error
mount: I could not determine the filesystem type, and
none was specified
Thanks for your help,
Joris
