[colug-432] Fwd: Fstab Questions

[Stephen P. Molnar]

I would beg the group's indulgence again, as I want to be sure I get 
this correctly.

I think this is what I want as the fstab:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type> <options>       <dump>  <pass>
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=4dc278b7-1792-4e89-b67e-a517fce97d19 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
# swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation
UUID=acfb9d26-69c6-4489-88fc-12f5c50bda97 none swap sw 0 0

UUID=900b5f0b-4f3d-4a64-8c91-29aee4c6fd07 /sdb1 ext4 
defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1

UUID=1f363165-2c59-4236-850d-36d1e807099e /Apps ext4 
defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1

/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0

in addition I need to have:

/sbd1
/Apps
/dev/sdb1
/devApps

I'm still not quite sure, however, how to give the user 'comp' read and 
write permissions

Comnents and corrections will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
