Hi All, Any help with the below would be great. I added an entry into my "stab file" while in root. It was to activate a usb floppy drive. Now I can no longer boot up normally into linux but am told I have a file system error and I can hear the usb floppy drive being activated. I think fedora is looking for a linux file system on a floppy disk. It is giving me choices to do a repair of the file system or just reboot which only brings me back round to the same situation again. I really need to edit the stab file but can't get access to it even though I am in a kind of root terminal. Good old speakup is still up and running however so at least I have speech to do what I need.However I only have read only permissions on anything in this area so can't do much in the way of changing anything. Here is the line I entered in the stab file: /dev/sda /mnt/usbfd auto noauto,user 0 0 I know I goofed on this one,*smiles*. Any help would be appreciated. Paul.
