etc/modules doesn't exist in openSUSE ls -w1 /etc/mod* modprobe.conf modprobe.conf.local modprobe.d: <here is listing of files in modprobe.d directory> The recommendation is to put your modules in /etc/modprobe.conf.local, but the /etc/init.d/boot.local works too for simple cases like this one. > With respect to the problems I was having, I recall there was one disk, > I think it was a tools disk...it came with the Iomega drive.

Now I know what happened, I'm not so sure that driver reload would work. Maybe. There must be some trace in /var/log/messages what happened when command mount tried to mount that disk, and that is what you still have ;-) -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
