Hello -

I have a server and client set up and they can manually mount the file systems but only in root which is fine but i would like them to mount on system start up. Ive went into my /etc/fstab and I've added a line:

192.168.0.XX:/home/teacher/client4 /mnt/client4 nfs rw 0 0

Like i said it works if i manually mount but it doens't work on automounting at bootup....

Any Suggestions?

You need to stop DSL form automatically creating fstab every time. I did this by adding
nofstab
to lilo.conf then rebuilding it.

You can also put other knoppix like cheatcodes in. :;):

For livecd or other compressed installs, you can add your manual mount command to /opt/bootlocal.sh
bootlocal.sh runs as root and is already part of the default backup.
