    fstab mounting USB flashdrives as /media/cdrom

    Hi all,

    I am unable to mount any of my flashdrives since fstab is mounting them in the /media/cdrom0 folder. How do I edit fstab to mount the flashdrives correctly?

    Any help is much appreciated.

    I am no expert with flash drives but what happens when you uncomment / delete the line:
    /dev/sdb1 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec 0 0 ?

    then going to systemsettings>harddisks&files (whatever, mine is in german) and editing your usb drives accordingly (mount point, mount at bot, etc)
