add this to your /etc/fstab

Code:

/dev/sdc2        /mnt/ipod        auto        users,noauto,umask=000  0 0

also make the dir /mnt/ipod. your system might pick it up as something other than sdc2 so that might need to be changed but this is how i do it

Use gtkpod

bird603568 · 04-15-2007, 04:52 PM

well no matter what he uses he still need to add it to fstab and from my experience gtkpod always seems to mess up my tags. if you are using amarok us it

i have this error:

root@gyhtjkl;:/mnt# mount ipod
mount: you must specify the filesystem type

my ipod is the recent nano

Which desktop are you using? Konqueror has an ipod:/ protocol.

In Amarok setup -> Media Devices, do you have a drop down entry for "Apple iPod Media Device"?

Which version of Amarok do you have?

sparkus · 04-15-2007, 05:42 PM

I use kde.

I adding device (Apple iPod Media Device) to amarok and he dont work, he need to mount the ipod

My amarok is 3.5.4

amarok isnt that high. but try vfat as the filesystem. also you dont have to be root to mount the ipod if you use my entry in fstab

vfat dont work!

wtf!

I have full install of slackware.

help me plz i need to use my ipod!

bird603568 · 04-15-2007, 06:43 PM

well ive never used a nano, but it should still be a vfat. unless its ntfs but i doubt it and i think that ntfs write is still kind of shaky (dont quote me on that). are you 100% sure that you have the right /dev/?

sparkus · 04-15-2007, 07:15 PM

ok he work now

THANK YOU
