fstab syntax
The more I read on the internet the more confused I become. Would someone be so good as to tell me how I would write this mount, (it works fine) into my /etc/fstab
Code:
mount /dev/sdb1 /media/EHD/ -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222 Thanks Robert... |
/dev/sdb1 /media/EHD/ ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0

/dev/sdb1 /mnt/EHD ntfs-3g umask=0222, nls=utf8 0 0 |
Is your system using UUID? Take a look at your /etc/fstab.
I hope this helps http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-f...-update-fstab/ |

The article on UUID does not seem to apply in my case as I am not using ext3 on my external drive. Robert.. |
that space between the umask and nls will break it. try the one I gave you.

Code:
/dev/sdb1 /media/EHD/ ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0 - /media/EHD/ => the destination where you want your device mounted - ntfs => the filesystem type of the device you are mounting - nls=utf8,umask=0222 => option(s) for the filesystem you are mounting also, this line will work for your other external drives as long as their fs type is 'ntfs'. |
