Could someone help me configure my fstab file to work with all my devices? I am running a special flavor of Slackware called Topologilinux (runs off an image file, but boots into "real mode"). I have 1 hd partition (windows), which it recognizes fine. I have three cd drives, a usb external CD-RW drive, which it recognizes because I had set that as my main drive during setup, an internal DVD+RW drive, and an internal CDROM. The internal CDROM and DVD+RW drive aren't recongized. I tried modifying fstab, but I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. What specifically should I put into fstab (and where) to mount these 2 cd drives? Here is my fstab file:
As you can see the last 2 lines are my attempts at modifying it to recognize the cdroms, it didn't work.# Format:
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# This is for a loop device as root linux system.
/dev/loop7 / auto defaults 1 1
# the CD and the floppy
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 users,defaults,noauto,ro,user 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto users,defaults,noauto,user 0 0
# proc file system:
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# Unix98 devpts filesystem:
#none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=666 0 0
# This is a loop device swap file
/dev/loop6 none swap sw 0 0
#if you have other partitions you want like windows partitions
#add it below here
/dev/cdrom2 /mnt/dvd-rw iso9660 users,defaults,noauto,user,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom3 /mnt/cdroma iso9660 users,defaults,noauto,user,ro 0 0
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Garibaldi
