Asunto: [gentoo-user] Mounting /dev/sdaX on boot does not work |

hi, |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
i have external hard drive connected through usb. i put the following line |
| 12 |
into /etc/fstab |
| 13 |
/dev/sda1 /mnt/usb ext3 user,auto,exec 0 0 |
| 14 |
but localmount reports the problem of not finding /dev/sda1. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
when i tried to call mount -at .. after the boot proces in local.start it |
| 17 |
proceeds well. |
| 18 |
what is responsible for initializing of /dev/sda1? or have i forgotten to |
| 19 |
add something into fstab? |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
thanks, |
| 22 |

Most probably fstab isn't be the problem, but loaded modules. The modules |
| 28 |
needed to handle USB connections must be loaded before you try to mount |
| 29 |
any USB disk, although I'm not sure whether this is possible and/or |
| 30 |
advisable. My suggestion is compiling this modules directly into the |
| 31 |
kernel, that way you make sure you have USB support from the very |
| 32 |
beginning. |
