I'm using debian etch, I have a Asus combo on Eide cable and a 160Gb sata hardrive. Im getting sloppy dvd playback so I tried to enable the DMA for the combo but it apears I do not hdparm. Im new to linux and im not sure what to do.
I'm using kernel 2.6.16-2 em64t.
I have another problem. I cant get the fat file systems to mount as the machine starts. I have to manualy mount them everytime. I have done a bit of reading on this and tried a lot of things but nothing has worked.
My fstab looks like this.
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sda11 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sda9 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdb /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/sda10 /mnt/fedora ext3 defaults 0 0
/dev/sda5 /mnt/drive2 vfat rw,dev,exec,auto,unmask=000 0 0
/dev/sda6 /mnt/music vfat rw,dev,exec,auto,unmask=000 0 0
/dev/sda7 /mnt/video vfat rw,dev,exec,auto,unmask=000 0 0
/dev/sda8 /mnt/backup vfat rw,dev,exec,auto,unmask=000 0 0
/dev/sda4 /mnt/win vfat rw,dev,exec,auto,unmask=000 0 0
BTW I dont have floppy drive i dont know how it got there. I have fedore installed to a drive too.
Thanks in advance if you can help
