fstab empty?!?!

osc~ · 07-05-2007, 05:46 PM

hello

for some reason fstab is empty.

check out the thread runlevel wont work!!!???

actually after installing gnome from slacky.eu a whole lot of problems started happening.
the first was the inittab was erased, after i fixed that the fstab is erased.

could anybody send me theirs.
PS

is this problem due to my ignorance or is the gnome-slacky release crappy?

Was other files deleted from the /etc directory?
More than likely no one elses fstab will work for you because of partitioning and disk types. One can try to get some of it working with info from the command ' /sbin/fdisk -l '. It will list available partitions and the filesystem type.

An example of my fstab on one of my machines.

Code:

i managed to retrieve the back-up of fstab:

Quote:

/dev/sda2 /mnt/winxp ntfs defaults 0 0
/dev/sda3 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda4 / ext3 defaults 1 1

devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0

using nano and under sudo i wrote this in the fstab file.
the following message appears:

[ Error writing /mnt/lin/etc/fstab: No space left on device ]

how do i solve this?????

thanks

depends on usually remove everything in /tmp

what does df -h show?

@ osc~
Error writing /mnt/lin/etc/fstab: No space left on device

That error means exactly what it says. Chances are, your addition of gnome filled up the filesystem. When that happens, strange things occur. Fix it.

i tried to remove everything from /tmp but it says that it is write protected.

i have 60GB it is impossible that the disk got full.

Run this command ' df ' and post the output.
