Floppy And Dvd Is Not Automounted Anymore
 
A few weeks ago I had trouble with the box trying to open the dvd and the floppy on a regular basis (every 10 seconds). So I changed the owner of /media/dvdrecorder and /media/floppy to root. I think it was my username before, though I'm not sure. I've tried to have the owner of /media/dvdrecorder and /media/floppy to be both my username and root. Now the dvd and the floppy don't get automounted like they did before. I havn't changed /etc/fstab.

This is what it looks like:
Code:
/dev/hda2                        /                                        reiserfs  acl,user_xattr                1 1
/dev/hda1                        swap                                swap          pri=42                                0 0
devpts                          /dev/pts                        devpts        mode=0620,gid=5          0 0
proc                                /proc                                proc          defaults                          0 0
usbfs                                /proc/bus/usb                usbfs          noauto                                0 0
sysfs                                /sys                                sysfs          noauto                                0 0
/dev/dvdrecorder        /media/dvdrecorder  subfs          noauto,fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=utf8 0 0
/dev/fd0                        /media/floppy                subfs          noauto,fs=floppyfss,procuid,nodev,nosuid,sync 0 0
/dev/hdb1                        /mnt/hdb1                        reiserfs  defaults                          0 0
I can mount them manually with:
SuSEBurken:/media # mount /dev/dvdrecorder /media/dvdrecorder/
SuSEBurken:/media # mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy
but the name of the dvd record in the dvdrecorder isn't displayed then. How do I change it back?

In /etc/fstab replace noauto with auto for automounting a device ( dvdrecorder or floppy )
I however suggest you not to automount the floppy. It doesnot bother you much to mount the floppy whenever it is occasionally used.
