Hi,
I have had some problems configuring a zip drive in Mandrake 6.1 and I d like to ask
you something.
It used to work really well in Mandrake 6.0 (and in Mandrake 5.2) with the following
fstab but now I have done a new
installation (Mandrake 6.1) and it is not working anymore. It is an IDE Iomega zip
drive 100 internal. Its is working
fine in windows. I have my box partioned (hda1=windows). During the installation
Mandrake no longer recognizes my zip
drive as it did before during the installation of Mandrake 5.2.
So, when I booted for the first time I added a new line in fstab:
/dev/hdb /mnt/zip auto sync,user,noauto,nosuid,nodev,unhide 0 0
After this when I try to mount it, the light blinks and it tells me:"bad superblok;
wrong fs type".
I have kept the fstab just as it was (and as it is now):
/dev/hda1 / ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hda3 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto sync,user,noauto,nosuid,nodev,unhide 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 user,noauto,nosuid,exec,nodev,ro 0 0
/dev/hdb /mnt/zip auto sync,user,noauto,nosuid,nodev,unhide 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0622 0 0
Would you know what is going on? Why this fstab that worked fine in previous versions
is no longer working?
Best regards,
Rodrigo Freire Oliveira
