Greetings,
I'm having a little trouble understanding and how to fix this quagmire. I'm simply trying to change the default mount point of a USB drive.
I am working with SuSE Enterprise Dektop (SLED) 10.2. I have one harde drive (sda) in the laptop with 3 partiticions (one ntfs for windows, one fat for data, and one reiserfs for Linux). I also have one more hard drive and internal laptop drive (sdb) with 1 partition (one reiserfs for data) in a vantec sx enclosure connecting to my laptop by way of USB2.0.
If I leave my fstab file alone
Code:
/dev/sda6 / reiserfs acl,user_xattr 1 1
/dev/sda3 /DataStore vfat users,gid=users,umask=0002,utf8=true 0 0
/dev/sda1 /windows ntfs ro,users,gid=users,umask=0002,nls=utf8 0 0
/dev/sda5 swap swap defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0
usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0
Sdb1 is mounted to /media/disk, the disk shows up in nautilus in gnome as one drive. /etc/mtab is as follows
Code:
/dev/sda6 / reiserfs rw,acl,user_xattr 0 0
proc /proc proc rw 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0
debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs rw 0 0
udev /dev tmpfs rw 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,mode=0620,gid=5 0 0
/dev/sda3 /DataStore vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,gid=100,umask=0002,utf8=true 0 0
/dev/sda1 /windows ntfs ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev,gid=100,umask=0002,nls=utf8 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /media/disk reiserfs rw,nosuid,nodev 0 0
Now, if I add this to fstab
Code:
/dev/sdb1 /media/MoreStuff reiserfs auto,user,rw 0 0
Sdb1 is mounted to /media/MoreStuff which is where I want it. Unfortunately, Nautilus shows 2 drives instead of one and one. Clicking on one will take me to the drive, clicking ont he other will give me an error that sdb1 is already mounted.
Can someone please explain the difference between fstab and mtab and where the default mount points of USB devices are stored?
Thanks in advance.
