10 .SH DETAILS ABOUT GENERATION OF /etc/fstab
12 If the file /etc/fstab is not present at all a default file will be
13 generated. As devices are added or removed to the system, new entries for
14 for these devices will be added to /etc/fstab. Please note that entries
15 are added to the end of /etc/fstab, so you should \fBnot\fP add your own
16 devices below any lines containing "Added by GRML" but instead \fBabove\fP
17 the line \'"Warning! Please do....\'".
19 If a partition contains a filesystem with a filesystem label on it, an entry
20 with LABEL= is generated so you can run \'mount /media/$LABEL\'. If multiple
21 filesystems have the same filesystem, label entries with UUID= are generated
22 instead so uniqueness for mounting filesystems can be guaranteed. If duplicate
23 labels are present but UUIDs are not set it is falling back to normal
24 /dev/ice-schema. For present filesystem labels see /dev/disk/by-label/* for the
25 label<->partition mapping. If you want to get details about a filesystem (and
26 if a label is defined) run \'"/lib/udev/vol_id /dev/ice\'". If you want to
27 disable the LABEL feature take a look at the FAQ below.
29 External USB Devices are named usb-sd*.
33 .B How to disable the LABEL-feature?
35 Set the boot option 'nolabel'.
38 .B How do I set uid/gid for the user(s) who should be allowed to access the device?
40 Adjust CONFIG_FSTAB_USER and CONFIG_FSTAB_GROUP in /etc/grml/autoconfig. Further
41 updates will then use these new values.
