Mounting Partitions...Gnome

kvnband · 11-29-2005, 10:31 PM

I'm having a really big problem here. When I go to the Disk Manager and try to mount a partition, it won't work. So I have to go to the Terminal and manually sudo -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /media/HD1 umask=(something here..forgot what it was)
sudo -t ntfs /dev/hdb1 /media/Storage umask=......

That mounts them and I can browse them...until I restart. How can I make Ubuntu mount them automatically on startup, and why won't the disk manager mount them?
Thanks,
Kevin

OK, I went and backed up my fstab and edited it and added the following to the end:

/dev/hda1 /media/HD1 ntfs umask=0222 0 0
/dev/hdb1 /media/Storage ntfs umask=0222 0 0

I restarted gnome but it didn't mount the drives automatically. Will a computer restart mount them? I would test, but I'm off to bed.
Thanks,
Kevin
