Furthermost I want to add , that the mount script had not changed from pup430 to luci254 , which I think had been the third last release candidate for 525 .

Karl Godt,

You can theorize and speculate.

I'm doing hands on testing.

There is a huge difference in procedure. Do you want it to work in theory or in reality?

In terms of this specific bug request (turned help request), MikeF can test your theories. He can test my actual results.

If MikeF is willing to use his keyboard, and I suppose it will be, let him report results from my tests and your theories.

Unless you have a better idea

The code you posted below, doesn't apply to the topic title or MikeF's complaint. Or the bug I validated.

And make sure , that the fuse module is loaded

Karl Godt,

Your ideas and theories serve to show your ideas and theories are silly.

You have not shown a sound testing method.

It is easy to test, why haven't you?

With all respect , but now you become kind of "to be stuck up" to say in kind words .

About the fuse module :

I am guessing you have ntfs-3g set as fs and not ntfs ??

Without the fstab entry the screen shot is worthless !

Fresch frugal install of
Lucid Puppy 254 PUPMODE=5

the fuse.ko is inside the initrd.gz and should be cp to full installs by
grep -n '/initrd' `which puppyinstaller`
1366: if [ -d /lib/modules/$KERNELVER/initrd ];then
1368: cp -af /lib/modules/$KERNELVER/initrd/* $DESTMNTPT/lib/modules/$KERNELVER/

it is loaded automatically here .

these fstab entries don't work for me :
#/dev/sda4 /mnt/sda4 ntfs ro 0 1
#/dev/sda4 /mnt/sda4 ntfs-3g ro 0 1

mount-FULL calling ntfs-3g with the -n option
busybox_v1.16.2 busybox mount -: no such device , though /dev/sda4 seems to be correct :
brw-r--r-- 1 root root 8, 4 2001-02-13 21:43 /dev/sda4

but this does :
/dev/sda4 /mnt/sda4 auto ro 0 1

to mount -n -a , mount-FULL -n -a , mount /dev/sda4 , mount /mnt/sda4 , busybox mount -n -a
sucessfully the ntfs partition .

And because of wrong '/bin/df' /tmp/xerrs.log gets spammed by 'pup_event_frontend_d' with
"ash: 713: unknown operand" , which stands for availabble tmpfs of 713MB , so
the df-script is also essential for frugal installs to reduce the output of grep '/' to only one line .

The df thing seems not to affect the mount script at all though it is used by the
'icon_mounted_func' .

At all it seems to be a simply 'auto' for the fs in fstab and perhaps delete the 'noauto' from the cd line .
