Ok, so I have a firewire drive that I backup to. There is an ext3 file system on it. I have an entry in /etc/fstab so it gets mounted at boot.
The problem is this: during boot, this machine (debian) wants to fsck the drive. This wouldn't be a problem, except that that the 1394 drivers and the device have not been set up yet. So, fsck fails and I get the whole "hit control-d for normal bootup" thing. This is a server, and I want it to boot... I imagine I could add a line to rc.local and mount the drive manually. But, there has got to be a correct way to do it. Is there a flag in fstab that says don't fsck the drive? Or can I get the drive setup before fsck is run (prefered)? namaste, Mark _______________________________________________ Siglinux mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://machito.utacm.org/mailman/listinfo/siglinux
