The only way to fix the problem by users is: 1. Boot Knoppix Live CD and manually edit Ubuntu/Kubuntu the /etc/fstab file. For each FAT entry in fstab, replace '1' in column 6 with a '0'
2. Save the modified fstab* Then Kubuntu/Ubuntu no longer checks FAT32 partions and does not destroy them! ____________________________________ An easy fix by the developers is to create a sed script that replaces '1' in col 6 of fstab with a '0' for all FAT entries in the fstab. They should have also provided a patch for the affected versions of Ubuntu/Kubuntu (6.10 and 6.11 since most users do not know how to edit fstab manually! I am surprised that the developers still has not fixed the bug. _________________________________________________________________ Get today's hot entertainment gossip http://movies.msn.com/movies/hotgossip?icid=T002MSN03A07001 -- vfat filesystems checked by fsck https://launchpad.net/bugs/48806 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
