Hi Jon. Hi everyone. Nope. Can anyone send me the fstab line for their dvd recorder?

Hi and thanks. Thats exactly what I have now but I still can't mount the disk. Or rather I can but I have to do it as root. I see /dev/dvdrecorder is a link to /dev/hdd. I removed the original line in /etc/fstab and let Yast>hardware add it for me. I can't see any errors relating to this under /var/log Can anyone give me any clues?

If you add "user" as an option in the fstab entry for /dev/dvdrecorder, it should solve your problem.

I missed the first part of this thread... is this on a 10.1 machine? If so, subfs is dead and buried in 10.1, thank goodness.

Hi and thanks.

Notice that with the above line _you_ do not mount the disk; rather, the system does so automatically as soon as it detects a disk in the drive. No wonder that users can not "mount" it: it is not configured for manual mount. If you want to manually mount the cdrom, and allow users to mount as well, you need something like this: /dev/dvd /media/dvd auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0 - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Hi and thanks.

I don't mount that disk unless software is writing to it. I have a DVD (reader) drive that I use to read disks, checking my /etc/fstab, it has the exact same attributes save for the /dev/ and /media/. I do actually allow KDE to mount it when disks are inserted.
I see /dev/dvdrecorder is a link to /dev/hdd. I removed the original line in /etc/fstab and let Yast>hardware add it for me.

I'm not sure if this is of any benefit, but it's the line from my /etc/fstab for automounting by users of a fat32 partition: /dev/hda1 /mnt/ME vfat users,gid=users,umask=0002,iocharset=utf8 0 0 You might find something to tinker with in it. There have been several threads on mounting optical drives, but I don't have my histories sorted out yet, they probably have just what you are looking for in them, which means a google search of the archives could be a good place to look further.

Thanks, Steve.
I don't understand the problem. The filesystem is subfs, so the drive should be automatically mounted as soon as you put in a disc. To make life even easier, the drive should be automatically umounted as soon as you eject. I just verified all this on my own system, SuSE 9.3, with an fstab entry identical to yours. -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com

Hi Steve, steve wrote: pages and saw a possible glitch. The 'noauto' option makes the device not be mounted at boot. At boot time only root can mount devices, yet later you are asking a non privileged user to mount the device. Perhaps the user should have root persmissions to access the device? Quoted from mount: (iii) Normally, only the superuser can mount file systems. However, when fstab contains the user option on a line, then anybody can mount the corresponding system. Thus, given a line /dev/cdrom /cd iso9660 ro,user,noauto,unhide Any user can mount the iso9660 file system found on his CDROM. Check the ORDER of the options ie user is before noauto. To me this would make a difference as 'noauto' first would mean only root can mount the device however with 'user' first the user would be given preferential treatment over root?
