To my mind it's allways reach to mount at the boot. When try to read or attempt a file from my floppy which I know is empty, it's waiting for a while but detetct there is not quite quickly (not faraminous but...).
For example, a find command could set it off > Don't understand what you can do with a "find" (not fine ?) command. -----Message d'origine----- De : [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]De la part de Ben Logan Envoye : vendredi 15 fevrier 2002 01:33 A : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Objet : Re: how to access drive A and CDROD and TAPE from Command line On Thu, Feb 14, 2002 at 04:28:39PM +0100, Ismael Touama wrote: > Hi, > > is there no automount in rh7.2 that able using floppy, cdrom drive > without explicitly mount these ones ? > Example, I do > ls /etc/fd0/myFile I don't know about 7.2 (don't have it), but 7.1 definitely has automount/autofs--I've just never used it. :) See the manpages for automount and autofs for more details. Looks pretty simple to setup. The reason I wouldn't use it is that I would always be triggerring the floppy/cdrom drive when there wasn't a disk in it. For example, a find command could set it off. Then you would have to sit there and wait for it to figure out that there's not really anything in the drive.
