in my case the mount of /dev/sda4 does not work, only the mount of /dev/sda is
successfull.
i've found a other solution changing the updfstab.c
changing the entry
device diskonkey {
partition 1
match hd diskOnKey
}
in /etc/updfstab.conf.default to
device diskonkey {
partition 0
match hd diskOnKey
}
works for me, even if i make a 'real' partition.
Fixed in 0.99.96-1. |
Description of Problem: The DiskOnKey device has a very strange partition table that it doesn't actuallyuse (and that seems to drive fdisk crazy). If "sdx" is the device chosen for the key, it's possible to mount either /dev/sda4 or just plain ol' /dev/sda, butnot /dev/sda1, which is the partition updfstab chooses to add to the table. This means that only root can mount the device. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plug the DiskOnKey into a USB port 2. 3. Actual Results: The line /dev/sda1 /mnt/diskonkey auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0 is added to /etc/fstab by updfstab. Expected Results: The line /dev/sda /mnt/diskonkey auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0 should have been added to /etc/fstab by updfstab. /dev/sda4 rather than /dev/sda works with the default, bizarre, partition table, but will cause problems if the partition table is modified. Additional Information: changing the { "diskonkey", CLASS_HD, 0, 1, "DiskOnKey" }, line in updfstab.c to { "diskonkey", CLASS_HD, 0, 0, "DiskOnKey" }, seems to fix the problem.
