Mount Options
« on: August 13, 2006, 07:53:07 pm »
oz 3.5.4 , collie

In the /etc/fstab file that comes with OZ 3.5.4, both the cf and sd card mount options include 'user' which will give an error.  So I took it out.

but... it doesnt really matter because those options are hardly ever used.  It looks elsewhere for options, and I'm not sure where, because usually the sd card is mount with just 'rw'.  Only if I run mount -a from the command line do I get my noatime,sync options.

Is there somewhere I can specify mount options that will get used for a case like lets say I umount and then pop the card back in (which automatically mounts it), or for if I reset the Z?

i belive the file you want would be /etc/fstab

i know what you mean, the things you are looking for should be in a init script somwhere so do a "grep mount *" in the startup directories and see where it does what, it is my understanding that at boot it should mount / then call mount -a but i guess they have each mount hard coded (i dont like it as it means /home dosent get mounted on my machine, se my sig)

the script you want seems to be mountall.sh in /etc/init.d however it does appear to do a -a, i am not sure why this seems to ignore the options in /etc/fstab unless somthing is not set up correctly
