Re: Partitioning, FSTAB, Mount Points ???? Newbie

I don't understand why you cannot put a new entry in fstab.
Can you see the disks in /dev directory???

2007/8/30, melissa <melissad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>:

I have four SATA drives. Formerly, they mounted with /export
and /archives, but now << mount >> says they do not exist. I can see
the drives as volumes in the native file browser, but cannot rename
them. If I mount them (right click from the left side window), they
mount, but nothing appears in them and I cannot copy or save to them,
even as sudo. Reason: I don't have a mount point name appearing
in /etc/fstab or in the browser.

I am at a loss for chown from the terminal as these mount points are not
recognized ("disk" and "disk1"). I have been, I guess, spoiled by
SuSE's YaST.
