I'm trying to add a long list of mount options in my fstab, and break the entry over 2 lines, as it goes off screen.
Taking this as an example:
# This works # #/dev/hda9 # original settings # LABEL=downloads /downloads ext3 defaults 1 2
# This doesn't work # #/dev/hda9 # new options LABEL=downloads /downloads \ ext3 defaults 1 2
Using the '' character at the end of the line in the above example gives the following error message at boot time:
Mounting local filesystems: mount: unknown filesystem type '' mount point defaults does not exist.
Is it possible to make multiple line entries like this in fstab, or not?
Kind Regards,
Keith Roberts
