Hi chill, RE: pCP /etc/fstab is generated on every boot of piCore. See [Main Page] in [Advanced] mode > [Diagnostics] > [Boot Process] and look for "rebuildfstab" (ctrl F). The "rebuildfstab" script can be run anytime to generate a new /etc/fstab. rebuildfstab also adds the "noauto" option so "mount -a" doesn't work. I use Paul's [LMS] page for mounting extra partitions. Works for great for me. There is a "nofstab" boot code. See [Main Page] in [Beta] mode > [Extras] > [Bootcodes]. I haven't used it but it should prevent /etc/fstab from being auto generated. You could make your own fstab and add it to /opt/.fileoot so it gets added to mydata. regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110496 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
