This should be /files/etc/fstab/*[file= .... and not "1". See the example in my last e-mail. What's happening is you're specifying that you want to change a node that is: 1. the first entry in the file (the "1") 2. *and* has the path /home/manica/minfrin I'm guessing your entry probably isn't the first in fstab, so it doesn't match. This causes a new node to be created, which now only has the "spec" given. When you save it's not a full entry (with every field in the fstab) so it's causing the error. Use "print" as suggested in my e-mail to have a look at the tree as you modify it. It's really the best way to learn and see what's going on without stabbing away in the dark. You would see by running "print /fiels/etc/fstab" after running your set command that you haven't in fact changed the "spec" of your entry. -- Dominic Cleal Red Hat Engineering _______________________________________________ augeas-devel mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/augeas-devel
