Stefano, > Miark, your suggestion works, THANKS a lot.
Great to hear it. > Sorry for asking this further question. I thought that "autofs" was > useful for mounting ANY filesystem, including read-only NTFS and > CD-ROMs. I suppose it is--many people on this list run it. But when you're running Supermount in addition to AutoFS, there's a conflict of interest, so to speak. Some people didn't get Supermount working to their satisfaction, so they stopped running that in favor of AutoFS. I was the opposite: Supermount works perfectly for me, so I killed AutoFS instead. I figured it would be the same for you. > Now, I removed autofs, it properly shuts down and I STILL > (fortunately) can read my NTFS filesystems and my CDROM. When you installed Mandrake, it made /etc/fstab entries for all that stuff. That's why you didn't experience any problems when you killed AutoFS. > So, my question is: is autofs used ONLY for NTFS. No, not to my knowledge. But then again, I'm not really sure since I'm a Supermount kinda guy. Miark
