Here are my cd/dvd/fd0 lines for you to compare:
none /mnt/cdrom supermount dev=/dev/hdb,fs=auto,ro,--,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850 0 0 none /mnt/cdrw supermount dev=/dev/scd0,fs=auto,--,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850 0 0 none /mnt/floppy supermount dev=/dev/fd0,fs=auto,--,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,sync,codepage=850 0 0 As you see, they are almost identical to yours, though they each contain 'user' This may be heresy, but I have a gut feeling that fstab doesn't like commented out lines. I had problems in the past with a similar situation and I know others who have. Why not save a copy to fstab.sav then delete the duplicate line? Can't do any harm, and may just help. Anne
