Fedora :: Unable To Use Udisks And Udisks-glue?
Jun 30, 2011I have installed Fedora 15 x86_64 but as I don't really like Gnome 3, I switch GDM/Gnome to Slim/awesome. Everything works except one thing which is authorisation with polkit /consolkit. When i launch a session with slim, it reads my .xinitrc and execute awesome with this command:
Code:
exec ck-launch-session awesome And in a virtual terminal if I check the autorisation with ck-list-sessions , the parameters "active" and "is-local" are always FALSE. So I can't use some applications like udisks and udisks-glue for automounting usb drive for example.
But if I launch my system in runlevel 3 ( via systemd), log in a tty and use startx , the parameters "active" and "is-local" are True and I am able to use udisks and udisks-glue.

Feb 23, 2010I've got a partition, let's say sdb6, which is one of the partitions of my second hard disk.On boot ubuntu only mount my boot partition, let's say sda2, which is on my first drive.Once ubuntu started if I want to mount a partition I usually click on it under the Places menu and an authorization is required.As I would like to add acl to a partition following this thread

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8787962
I've tried to add acl option to my fstab, but my /etc/fstab doesn't have any info of any of my partitions and it originaly looks like:
Quote:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name[code]...
My goal is to mount/unmount any partition with acl loaded and graphically ,but I reached my limit on my linux knoweledge.

Ubuntu Installation :: XFS - Which UTF8 Mount Option In Fstab
May 9, 2010I have since quite a long time the problem that files using special characters in their filenames are not displayed in various applications. In console or Thunar I have a special "white questionmark in a rhombus" sign for every special character. It is an XFS partition. I have read a few times that this can be solved by using the iocharset=utf8 option in /etc/fstab, but this option is not recognized and the mount inhibited.
I used other options: utf8 as well as nls=utf8, but that was not recognized neither. What option do I need to specify to enable utf8 for XFS ? Samba works. That means I can play an MP3 file in Windows exported from the XFS disk using Samba, although the special character is then shown as "_" in Windows..
OpenSUSE Install :: Option To Continue Boot When Something In Fstab Failed?

General :: Fedora File Permissions Not Taking Effect?
Jun 27, 2011I have a directory /models/ with the permissions
drw-rw-rw- 2 owner developers 4096 Jun 24 15:13 models
these were set with
sudo chmod -R 0666 *
My user has developers as the primary group (the same group as the file), but I cannot access the directory via the terminal or ftp.
[myUser@machine]$ id myUser
uid=503(myUser) gid=505(developers) groups=505(developers)
$ cd models
-bash: cd: models: Permission denied
I had the same problem before the directory belonged to my group, and I even went so far as to restart the server, without any luck. How do I set permissions to this directory so that I and other members of the group developers can access it?
Hardware :: Changes To Fstab (UUID's) / Revert Fstab's Listings Back To The Old /dev/hd Settings?
Jan 15, 2010I've had two hd's in my box forever. for more space and backup reasons. Well I have started running the Debian Squeeze distro since December. I've had many issues, some are still unresolved. but now I'm running into major headaches with the fstab. Specifically dealing with/wondering why UUID's are used instead of the old /dev/hd? I was a little annoyed when I tried Kubuntu to find /dev/sd? used instead of /dev/hd? but that was workable. But the UUID's are a nightmare. Here's my problem.
My main box is finally giving up the ghost. The mobo is dying. So in order to do some tests I took my hd bundle (my two hard drives with their cables) physically out of the box and temp installed them in a test box. I wanted to do some benchmark and other tests. I got all kinds of errors. I found that the system wasn't recognizing the UUID's listed in fstab. My concern is when the new mobo gets here next week I won't simply be able to plug the hd's in like I always have been and just let Linux reconfigure itself (Debian used to be good about this). I really don't want to have to clean reinstall if it's not needed.
So for this I have two questions. WHY developers decided to drop using /dev/hd? or even /dev/sd? ?
And is it possible to revert fstab's listings back to the old /dev/hd? settings. In debian fstab had lines commented out showing how each partition was listed in it's /dev/hd? status during install.
I'm getting really sick of all these archane changes in ALL aspects of linux that don't seem to have any good explaination or need.

View 6 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: How Makes Larger 'file Systems' Using /etc/fstab
Mar 12, 2011I have noticed the (understandable) tendency of new Linux users to think about disk drives in the 'Windows way'; their first thought is to exchange a new drive for an existing one, rather than combine both drives for a larger 'file system'.
There are times when replacing one drive with another is indeed the correct action (aging drive, failing drive, slow drive, etc). But in other cases it may be preferable to use the inherent strength of the fstab (file system table) file to combine physical drives to become a larger 'file system'.
Lets first look at a user with an 8 gig netbook who is running out of space. Rather than replace the 8 gig flash drive with a 32 gig device, the old and new devices can be combined to yield a 40 gig 'file system':
This same principle can be applied to a user with a computer using an 80 gig hard drive, and who 'adds' a new 320 gig drive instead of replacing the 80 gig drive with the 320 gig drive:
This same principle can also be applied to building a massive 'file system' without the requirement of using RAID:
The above 12 terabyte system can be built using a basic motherboard with four open SATA ports and four 3tb hard drives. No server based equipment is needed; no raid hardware or software is required. This is just something that Linux does (and does very well).

Jul 17, 2009Because I forgot to bring a portable hard drive, I cannot boot to a linux OS.
The reason is that the /etc/fstab has a line that is

And ext3-datadisk is on the portable hard drive.
The booting process stopped when it prompts for a root passwd or Ctl-D to reboot.
I keyed in the root passwd, and a (File Recovery) prompt appeared.

CentOS 5 :: Automount Cifs Filesystem Using The Fstab File
Aug 3, 2010I have been running a server for 3-4 years now, and my shares have been mounting just fine. Well, the network admin looked at a backup and seen that the last date backed up was june. I got to looking around and seen that the share is not mounting. I can mount it with sudo mount -a, which tells me my syntax is correct. I get an error about IPv4 socket not opened and it is aborting the operation when I run dmesg | tail, since I can use the above command to mount later, it sounds to me like it is trying to mount before the network connection is ready.
I have done some looking over some init scripts and found that in the /etc/rc.d/init.r/netfs script it has a line that states that it is checking to see if the network is up before it starts to mount the filesystems and the such. This is set to no, my question is, can I change this option to yes and get my desired results, waiting for the network to be up before it mounts the filesystems.

After some looking around I edited /etc/fstab to add the following line:
This works. But it mounts the windows partition from the root level. I'd like to just mount C:UsersFHSM (/Users/FSHM) to /mnt/windows.
I'm trying to get it so that when I click on the windows drive I get my windows user folder instead of having to click through from C: to get to it.
I'm the only user on this system but if I created a second windows user would my home folder mount for that person too or does setting the user ID prevent that from happening?

Feb 4, 2011In my system around 73gb(pc-desktop) i have,1 primary partition(windows)-25gb, 1-extended partition(remaining gb) 3 logical partitions were there in (under) extended partition in one of the logical partition is d:drive. in my hard disk d: drive is -/dev/sda5
previosly i was fat -file system , (d:drive-/dev/sda5), i remember i changed the d: drive(d:drive-/dev/sda5) file system to ext4file system ,with following command using terminal
After doing(changing the file system)this one ,i couldnt see the d:drive data
By doing that
1q) Did i reformatted the partition? i think the new filesystem(ext4) has no knowledge of the data that was on it when it had a FAT filesystem.
2q) How to do undo operation,i tried to change the filesystem type to fat/ntfs in terminal using command --sudo mkfs -t FAT /dev/sda5.
Result:its showing text message-'mkfs.FAT: No such file or directory'(not in single quote)
I had very imp data in d:drive
