Kieth Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 I was goofing around with my CD player seeing if I could get a CD playing, and changed my fstab settings. Yes I read the errata page, but this didn't stop me from trying!! :P Anyway, the change would only be to the cdrom player. Would you look at my fstab settings below and tell me what I need to do to make it the way it should be? Thanks! # Entry for /dev/sdb1 : UUID=74cd7cc9-901e-4a54-866b-e5b5e0675c15 / ext3 defaults 1 1 # Entry for /dev/sda5 : UUID=664a176f-fb80-4142-bf57-57ef5c8f0b56 /backup ext3 defaults 1 2 # Entry for /dev/sdb6 : UUID=30d7b7e5-995c-4dc0-b1b3-3603ff5dc60d /home ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom auto user,iocharset=utf8,noauto,ro 0 0 # Entry for /dev/sda1 : UUID=AA90865F9086323D /media/hd ntfs-3g defaults 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 # Entry for /dev/sdb5 : UUID=612580d6-b99d-405c-a466-7be8eecf6efe swap swap defaults 0 0 [moved from Everything Linux by spinynorman] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Do you mean to play an audio CD? You can't mount audio CD's, fstab wouldn't be the problem if audio CD's aren't playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamw Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Try just commenting out the line for the CD drive. It's a bit difficult to tell from your post exactly why you think you might have broken it, or what's wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieth Posted October 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) Oops, I thought I explained myself well! Anyway, I was sure I had changed my cdrom settings in fstab because I was goofing around trying to get an audio CD working (and yes, I read the errata!). Aactually I was goofing around with MCC, changing different settings, etc. I thought I had it returned back to its original settings, but I wasn't sure. So anyway, I was finally able to open kwrite in root (after reading what Greg said in another post B) ) After saving a backup of my fstab, I deleted the cdrom line like Adam said. fstab now says the same thing it did before I deleted the line, so I guess I didn't mess it up. I just wanted to make sure it was written correctly after I was playing around with MCC. Thank you. Edited October 17, 2008 by Kieth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
