You know what, actually I did have a copy of fstab but the command line don't give me the option to copy the file from /home/admin/backup/fstab on that place that shows me before, So you know what is was that way it might help others!!
If you want to copy your fstab backup from /home/admin/backup/fstab to /etc/fstab, simply run Code: cp -f /home/admin/backup/fstab /etc/fstab
My logic said enable it since the Perfect Setup said we were disabling it for security in ISPConfig... My illogical side said "but didn't we read that SELinux was trouble"... so much for logic! lol I'll check out the links, thanks! Hate it when you guy's assign home work!! As if I haven't pulled enough hair I have decided to reset the drive with dual boot option to Windows 2000 Pro and FC4. I found what appears to be a good (and current!) HowTo for this. Any thoughts or comments?
I assume this was in response to my question about copying and overwriting /etc/fstab when when the system failed to boot after install. I had to do some reading so I understood fstab and what was being said... This is simply a config file that set controls for mounted partitions correct? And copying this file does not clone the whole drive does it? I am not sure I understand the purpose of copying from /home/admin/backup to /etc/fstab since it actually resides in /etc. (well... unless the one in /etc got hosed somehow) Wouldn't it be the other way around? copy it from /etc/fstab to /home/admin/backup/fstab? I did learn some interesting stuff though! This file is why I could not get the console to recognize my floppy drive when I tried to copy it to the ststem. Code: # This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults,usrquota,grpquota 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 /dev/shm /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/sys /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 LABEL=®¯7÷ô3ƒ>IýŸo¹l² swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/fd0 /media/floppy1 auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 /dev/hdd /media/cdrecorder auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 /dev/fd0 and /dev/hdd both appear to be missing some key properties in the 4th column such as rw and user. I do not have a clue what that stuff after LABEL= for the swap partition is!? but it does not look right...
It was in response to cybereatl's question how to copy back his fstab from /home/admin/backup to /etc. Right. Prior to editing /etc/fstab, cybereatl had made a backup of /etc/fstab in /home/admin/backup. Now he corrupted his /etc/fstab and wanted to get back his original fstab, that's why I told him to copy it back from /home/admin/backup to /etc. It should look similar to this: Code: LABEL=SWAP-sda3 swap swap defaults 0 0
