Hi: In KDE, it allows me to mount CD by double-clicking on CDROM's KDE desktop icon. But when I try to unmount using the menu (Right button-hold->unmount) it fails. Why? The KFM Error Window displays: === Could not unmount: Error log: unmount:/dev/hdd is not in the fstab (and you are not root) === I have: /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 users, noauto, ro 0 0 entry in /etc/fstab and can unmount it by issueing 'umount /mnt/cdrom' command from any user account in terminal though. I checked man pages on 'mount', 'fstab', and 'umount' to see if there is something on this. Can anybody tell about this? What role '/etc/mtab' play in this? /etc/mtab has entry as below: /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 Does this 'noexec' option in '/etc/mtab' entry state that I can't execute files off CDROM? cdrom.kdelink file in ~/Desktop direcotry has 644 permissions on it. I tried setting permissions in 'properties' window of CDROM icon on desktop. Anybody has any ideas about this? thanks shirish -------------------------------------------------------------------- The Linux India Mailing List Archives are now available.
