Hi. In the /etc/fstab I have the next line for an usbdrive (IOMEGA USB 2.0 80 Gb): /dev/sda1 /media/IOMEGA_HDD vfat pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 I mounted the usbdrive with mount /media/IOMEGA_HDD. If I executed an ls command for one of the directories on the usbdrive (ls /media/IOMEGA_HDD) there is not problem but if I executed an ls of the usbdrive ls -lha /media/IOMEGA_HDD/ it takes aproximately more than five minutes to execute the command. Iago. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/attachments/20060908/dbe10a0f/attachment-0003.html>
