I thought I had everything working, until I recently tried to mount floppy, zip, and cd from the KDE desktop. Each time I try to mount I hear the drives spinning, desktop icons appear to be mounted, but trying to read I get error: /mnt/floppy or /mnt/zip or /mnt/cdrom does not exist. For zip it's especially fond of giving the error about no filesystem specified.
This is bizarre in that I can successfully mount and umount, list and move and copy files to/from the media as su/root in a terminal. My fstab looks like this: /dev/hda1 / ext defaults 1 1 none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/hda6 /home ext2 defaults 1 2 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,exec,codepage=850,ro,noauto 0 0 /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom2 auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,exec,codepage=850,ro,noauto 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,sync,exec,codepage=850,noauto 0 0 /dev/sda4 /mnt/zip auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,exec,codepage=850,noauto 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0 Mtab: /dev/hda1 / ext2 rw 0 0 none /proc proc rw 0 0 devfs /dev devfs rw 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts rw,mode=620 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0 /dev/hda6 /home ext2 rw 0 0 /proc/bus/usb /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs rw,devmode=0664,devgid=43 0 0 Should I just give up on the convenience of the GUI?
