I would like to mount my floppy, cdrom and zip drives while logged in as a
normal user(not root). I tried adding these lines to my /etc/fstab:
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 ro,users,noauto,unhide
/dev/fd0 /floppy ext2 users,noauto,unhide
/dev/sda /zip ext2 users,noauto,unhide
My entire fstab is:
/dev/hdb2 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hdb3 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hda1 / ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/hda2 /downloads ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/hdb1 /common vfat defaults 1 0
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 ro,users,noauto,unhide
/dev/fd0 /floppy ext2 users,noauto,unhide
/dev/sda /zip ext2 users,noauto,unhide
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
I then attempt to mount them using:
mount /dev/fd0
However, I get the message:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda,
or too many mounted file systems
If I try:
mount /dev/fd0 /floppy
I get the message:
mount: only root can do that
I can successfully mount them as root using:
mount /dev/sda /zip
Is there something obvious that I am missing??
TIA,
greyn
