Description Michael Stather 2006-01-28 18:29:39 UTC 
I´ve the following entry in my fstab
/dev/sda3            /data1               auto       ro,noauto,user           0 0
I added the "ro" flag myself but this doesn´t matter here.
The filesystem isn´t mounted on startup, and there´s no specific error message about that.

If course it is not mounted on startup, please read the manual page (look for meaning of noauto and user options). user has to mount it.
Comment 2 Michael Stather 2006-01-29 02:33:33 UTC 
OK, now it´s clear why it isn´t mounted.
But the installer always used to create directories for every partition found (e.g. /windows/X) and set the fstab to automatically mount them.
I can see no reason why this should have been changed, since now the user can´t work with them without using some command-line stuff (and SuSE should be different than debian *g).
