I get the feeling he may have an entry in fstab which spanned/spans 2 lines? Yes, I asked him to comment out the line and then just try the full command from the command line to eliminate an issue with /media/smb. In a previous message he showed the full contents of /media so it doesn't appear that the directory is missing. Would be "nice" if he would attach the actual fstab so it won't be wrapped/formatted by an email client. FWIW, he never confirmed that he actually did comment out the fstab entry. -- The key to getting good answers is to ask good questions. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
