[Bug 344483] New: Installer should not create floppy entries in /etc/fstab
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=344483 Summary: Installer should not create floppy entries in /etc/fstab Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: federico@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Development When you install openSUSE, the resulting /etc/fstab contains a line like /dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user,sync 0 0 This is unnecessary; HAL will tell file managers if there is a floppy drive in the machine, and file managers will then do the right thing to mount it if needed. We have had this problem since SLED 10. -- 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.

I think this changed though, so it can be removed.
