RE: [expert] automating mount proces
Hi Tom, Got a few questions for you if I may... Why did you have to upgrade initscripts and iptables to go with 2.4.16-1??? I have that kernel, initscripts-6.27-10.4 and iptables-1.2.4-2 Should I upgrade them?? it all seems to be fine and iptables is definately working... Secondly, with supermount -i enable and mount -a should I add them to rc.local??? I really would love to get supermount working for cdrom and floppy,, (so samba can share them effectively.) any help, much appreciated. rgds Frank -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Tom Brinkman Sent: Thursday, 6 December 2001 8:38 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [expert] automating mount proces On Thursday 06 December 2001 06:29 am, Grouwels Daniel wrote: That part I know, it is when I try to insert a cd, then remove, another cd ...

Re: [expert] automating mount proces
Many of us are having problems with LM8.1's Supermount. Some of the suggestions that I've seen have been to use KDF (Kdiskfree) and/or add CDRom icons to the Desktop. Although these give us the ability to access the removable media, it is still an awkward step backwards. So I'm starting this thread to hopefully help those that are having this problem and of course, the many that will encounter this problem. If some of these methods don't work, please contribute to this solution. - LM8.1 Supermount - Getting the darn thing to work. - FYI. I've been fooling around with the CDRoms and Floppy lines in fstab and got Supermount to work for both the CDRoms and Floppy drive. Try these lines (one line per device): /mnt/cdrom /mnt/cdrom supermount fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/hdc,ro,nosuid,nodev,exec 0 0 /mnt/cdrom2/mnt/cdrom2 supermount fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/scd0,ro,nosuid,nodev,exec 0 0 /mnt/floppy /mnt/floppy supermount fs=vfat,dev=/dev/fd0,nosuid,nodev,exec 0 0 After saving /etc/fstab with your new lines, do a umount -a and then mount -a Now they should mount automatically. Observations: Some things that oddly caused this Not to work: fs=auto - (instead, I had to use iso9660 for the CDRoms and vfat for the floppy) iocharset=iso8859-1, codepage=850 - (I just removed these because they kept interferring with Supermount) Good Luck, Sevatio Original Message dated 12/5/01, 4:00:21 PM Author: Grouwels Daniel [EMAIL PROTECTED] Re: [expert] automating mount proces: Hi, How can I automata the mount proces in the mandrake 8.1 I can't find it thanks Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

There is a program on http://freshmeat.net called autorun. I used it on my RH 7.1 system, and it seemed fine. Brian D.
