Editing /etc/fstab in Fedora 8
Evening all! :)
I have something of an embarrassing question regarding editing the filesystem table (/etc/fstab) and I would be grateful for any assistance. I've done a search of the forums and I haven't found an answer that works for me, hence this post. I have a hard drive partition (created through custom partitioning during installation) set aside for storage and I wish to make it writable for my ordinary user account. It's been years since I've edited /etc/fstab by hand and it seems my Unix-fu has grown weak with disuse. I cannot get it right, thus my embarrassment. Herewith the contents of /etc/fstab: Code:
LABEL=/1 / ext3 defaults 1 1 Many thanks in advance, Dailan |
I have my storage mounted with 0 0, but 1 2 should be OK.
What are ther permissions of /stuff (ie ls -l /stuff)? |

You were spot on Billy. I didn't have write permission set for the mount point. A quick "chmod 777 /stuff" has everything chugging along nicely. Thank you very much. ;) Dailan |
Sometimes it helps to have some new eyes on even the simplest problems.
