http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=510099 Summary: Partitioner not not remount a partition after changing fstab entries Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: lusena@acm.org QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042700 SUSE/3.0.10-1.1.1 Firefox/3.0.10 When you change the fstab entries for a mounted partition, the partitioner nether remounts (i.e. umount, mount) nor tells you to do an action that will do this. Thus when I was trying to get the right entry for allowing users to write to an NTFS partition I did not know I got it right the first time. A message about this would be nice. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Mount an NTFS partition (some how) 2. goto the partitioner yast wigit 3. change the NTFS fstab entires that change who can write and such. 4. finish the process 5. the old access right are still in place Actual Results: old rights are still in effect in my case could not write to the NTFS partition. Expected Results: Either the new right should be in effect, or I should have a message to reboot the machine/remount the partion/ or something. I worked this out, but it took sometime before I though that I had to remount the partition, (My computer is so fast I do not see to complete log). Using the partitioner is scary and some good exiting advise is important. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
