Bruno Posted March 27, 2004 Posted March 27, 2004 Aparently /dev/hda9 was already mounted . . because you made a TYPO !! You typed: # mount /devhda9 /mnt/hda9 and it should have been # mount /dev/hda9 /mnt/hda9 . . . but forget that part . . . close kwrite and try: # kedit /mnt/hda9/etc/fstab . . . . and put the line in and save . . .Then show me : # cat /mnt/hda9/etc/fstab Bruno Quote
kamicota Posted March 27, 2004 Author Posted March 27, 2004 Is that in Konsole or kwriteCos Konsole brings up Kwrite after"enter" and no where to SAVEColin Quote
Bruno Posted March 27, 2004 Posted March 27, 2004 You type the command "kedit /mnt/hda9/etc/fstab" in a console . . that brings up the GUI . . with a menubar where you can save in the menu . . Bruno Quote
