SV: [newbie] Is a restart necessary?

2002-11-20 Thread Anders Lind

If I make alterations to fstab, do I need to reboot, or can I cause it to be 
read some other way?

You don't need to reboot, when you try to mount each time it will read /etc/fstab
at that time

go to a terminal sheel and type mount -a this will force linux to reread the 
fstab and remount everything
