| 316229 | 2005-01-21 07:45:00 | Whatever is happening here, it has to be slightly out of the ordinary. With FC3 (or are you using FC1 or 2?), the whole process should be totally automatic with the pen drive being mounted under /media and an icon appearing ready for use on the desktop. This should happen straight out of the box with no manual changes to /etc/fstab. This is to do with the udev program. | johnd (85) | ||

| 316231 | 2005-01-22 01:10:00 | Some just seem to prefer being mounted as an entire drive rather than partition 1. Why this is, Im not sure It may be that most aren't partitioned as more than one area... maybe the partition table looks different after it's been sub partitioned, then changed back. It's all a bit complicated anyway ... the device is recognised as a usb-storage device, which the software pretends is a SCSI disk. |
