Read only fs
I am trying to boot my / fs as read only. Currently the file system is all /dev/hda1 and this is mounted as root but when I try to boot it in read only. I get so many errors I just don't know where to start. Any advice would be appreciated. Kris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

I get so many errors I just don't know where to start. Any advice would be appreciated. Kris What other filesystems do you have? I ask because, for example, /var needs to be writable. So if you don't have /var on a separate, writable partition, you can't use a readonly / (which contains var). What kinds of errors? Start at the beginning. Read the error, find out why it happens, and fix it. That's the best advice I can give to I get errors. good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- http://www.digitalconsumer.org/ signature.asc Description: Digital signature
read only FS
Me esta tirando un error al arrancar la pc, que dice que el sistema se montara en solo lectura por un error al querer cargar unix.o, cuando veo el log en /var/log/ksymoops/añomesdia.log me tira: /sbin/modprobe -s -k net-pf-10 safemode=1 /sbin/modprobe -s -k block-major-34 safemode=1 /sbin/modprobe -s -k block-major-33 safemode=1 /sbin/modprobe -s -k block-major-8 safemode=1 Y se repite esto en todo el log, me fije en /etc/modules.conf y la unica referencia similar es #alias net-pf-10 off# IPv6 pero esta comentada, en el archivo /etc/modules tengo esto: - unix af_packet 3c59x hfs nls_cp850 nls_iso8859-1 hpfs nfs nfsd vfat sysv smbfs umsdos sound matroxfb es1371 sound ntfs - Si hago un moun me tira :/dev/hda4 on / type ext2 (rw,errors=remount-ro) el hda4 es donde esta el / Si alguno me orienta se los agradecere!

SOLVED! Re: Letting users look at a read-only FS
Thanks Travis and Dale. The umask argument did the trick. I changed it to 000 instead of 007, because I didn't want to have to fiddle around with group ownerships as well. Now to get wine working. I'd like to play Magic: The Gathering online without having to boot windoze. ;) -- Stephen W.

Letting users look at a read-only FS
I have the following /etc/fstab: # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # file system mount point type options dump pass /dev/hda2 / ext3defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/hda3 noneswapsw 0 0 proc/proc procdefaults0 0 /dev/fd0/floppy autodefaults,user,noauto0 0 /dev/sr0/dvdiso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/sr0/cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/sr1/cdrw iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/hda1 /windowsntfsdefaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0 For my user accounts, I am able to mount /cdrom and /cdrw just fine. However, I can't get my user accounts to read the /windows directory, even if I mount it as a user. I've tried several different options in the fstab for /dev/ hda1, but I still can't let my user account read the device. Once the device is mounted, I get the following: coffee (steve)$ ll -d /windows/ dr-x--1 root root 8192 Jun 17 09:03 /windows/ but mounted under the same options in /etc/fstab, /cdrom looks like this: coffee (steve)$ ll -d /cdrom/ dr-xr-xr-x2 root root 2048 Apr 12 23:28 /cdrom/ Can somebody please tell me what's going on, and better yet, how to fix it?

Re: Letting users look at a read-only FS
Wouldn't umask=007 be better? Otherwise the gid part is redundant since the group really doesn't matter if other has the same permissions as group... I don't remember how I came up with this line, it was several months ago, looking at it now what you say makes sense. I think I tried umask=0 without gid=6 without luck, I will try umask=007 gid=6. I'm learning this with the help of debian-user, man pages, and google searches. I've been using OS/2 since '93, tried various rpm distros for a few years and fell for debian about 8 months ago, I'm hooked. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
