[Mageia-discuss] fstab problem

Fri Jun 15 17:46:03 CEST 2012

On my Cauldron netbook, fstab has the lines
+
+192.168.0.200:/DataFromBorg /mnt/QNAS-Lydgate-Data nfs useer,timeo=14 0 0
+192.168.0.40:/home /mnt/borg2_home nfs user,timeo=14 0 0
+
+The mounts work perfectly.
+On the new Mageia2 install, fstab, to do the same job, has the lines
+
+192.168.0.200:/DataFromBorg /mnt/QNAS-Borg-Data nfs user,timeo=14 0 0
+192.168.0.200:/Anne /mnt/QNAS-Anne nfs user,timeo=14 0 0
+192.168.0.40:/home /mnt/borg2_home nfs user,timeo=14 0 0
+
+
+'mount -a' fails on every count.  Each line produce s
+
+'mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on 192.168.0.200:/Anne,
+        missing codepage or helper program, or other error
+        (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might
+        need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program)
+        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
+        dmesg | tail  or so'
+
+
+
+I've stared these in the face for ages, and can't see the difference 
+between the netbook's working mounts and the laptop's non-working ones. 
+  Can I borrow a new pair of eyes from someone, please?
