USB mounting at boot time

[webfuture]

I have a problem mounting a USB hard drive at boot time. No problem doing a "mount -a".

If I understand correctly, it should mount at boot time what is in fstab.

Maybe the USB HD is not still recognize when the system parse fstab. I did not find anything relevant in var-log.

Using SUSE Enterprise 10.

Any clues?

Thanks

Can you show us that line in fstab?

Here you go...

/dev/sdc1 /media/onetouch vfat suid 0 0

I found something in boot.log...

first I see
<6>usb 1-2: new device found, idVendor=0d49, idProduct=7100
<6>usb 1-2: new device strings: Mfr=1, Product=3, SerialNumber=2
<6>usb 1-2: Product: OneTouch II
<6>usb 1-2: Manufacturer: Maxtor
<6>usb 1-2: SerialNumber: B60P7C2H
<6>usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

Then
Waiting for /dev/sdc1 .

and
mount: special device /dev/sdc1 does not exist


Again, mount -a works fine.

If I cannot find a solution for boot time, I will mount before doing a backup to that USB disk.
