Hi all,
I installed Knoppix to hda things went well. I had the disk previously
partitioned and after the install went to set them up how I wanted it.
I got /home and /var to work fine w/ fstab. The one giving me headaches
is the /boot partition. No matter what I've tried it won't mount at
boot. If I mount it from the command line it works fine.
The partition layout I set up is
/dev/hda1 /boot
/dev/hda2 swap
/dev/hda3 /
/dev/hda5 /home
/dev/hda6 /var
Here is my /etc/fstab file.
# /etc/fstab: filesystem table.
#
# filesystem mountpoint type options dump pass
/dev/hda3 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 1 1
/dev/hda1 /boot ext3 defaults,noauto 1 2
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hda5 /home auto rw,auto,user,exec 1 2
/dev/hda6 /var auto defaults 1 2
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /floppy vfat defaults,user,noauto,showexec,umask=022 0 0
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noexec,noauto 0 0
# partitions found by Knoppix
#/dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 ext3 noauto,users,exec 0 0
#/dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3 ext3 noauto,users,exec 0 0
#/dev/hda5 /mnt/hda5 ext3 noauto,users,exec 0 0
#/dev/hda6 /mnt/hda6 ext3 noauto,users,exec 0 0
If anyone could give me a push in the right direction I would appreciate
it. This has been killing me since I got back from vacation on Monday.
And even before I left. errrr.
Thanks.
