Actually I am doing nothing with fstab. Not sure what is going on here.
So you can confirm that adding and removing the disk changes your /etc/fstab? Can attach the output of: ps afx so we can see if there is a daemon running doing this?
Anyway, a device available thru plugging in or network connection should never be taken as mandatory for boot.
Sure, and nothing should ever touch fstab.
As far as I am concerned, only built in peripherals should be allowed to be mnadatory. The boot disk ( this got to be there, otherwise you wouldn't be booting - cogito, ergo sum - ), the keyboard and a monitor. The rest should not allow to stop the boot process, or else you won't be able to do much about the situation.
"Or do you run software that edits fstab automatically?" What would that be except for openSUSE ?
Nothing I know of, and if, it should be stopped doing that nonsense. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
