Mandrake 9.1 fstab Issues


When I reboot Mandrake 9.1 it continues to add this line to my /etc/fstab file:

/dev/sdb1 /mnt/hd auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,kudzu,codepage=850,noauto,umask=0,exec 0 0

I've already deleted it once and I would just prefer it not try to mount that drive. I see its coming from kuduz, so how do I tell it to stop adding it in?

The drive in question is my WindowsXP parition which I would just assume Linux have no knowledge of so that I don't loose any data.

Thanks,

Celeron

disable kudzu for it won't do this....
just enable it whenever you add a new piece of hardware if you want.

I'd really prefer not to disable Kuduz so that it will still detect new hardware on bootup. Does anyone else have any suggestions on how to stop it from adding that hard drive to my /etc/fstab?

Thanks

Take out the "kudzu" option from your fstab entries and save the file, reboot and see what happens.
