Trying to do a simple edit to fstab but keep failing.
I want to mount a device in such a way that it ends up with uid and
gid of my choice. But when I attempt to add those options (or any
others it seems) the mount fails with this error:
# mount /home/harry/.junk
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdd1,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
I see nothing helpful in /var/log/messages.
Both man mount and googling for examples... seem to show the same
sort of thing I am trying.
The fstab line:
/dev/sdd1 /home/harry/misc ext4 user,uid=1000,gid=1050 0 0
I've tried several different rendition but far as I can tell the line
above should work.
I'm probably making some terribly obvious error but failing to see
what it is.
I'm guessing you have a folder named "misc" in /home/harry/ ?
This is what I would use, make it noauto:
'/dev/sdd1 /home/harry/misc ext4 auto,users,exec,relatime 0 0'
