Fstab Options
Specify various parameters contained in the global file system administration
file (/etc/fstab). The default settings should suffice for most setups.
You can, for example, change the file system identification from the device
name to a volume label. In the volume label, use all characters except / and
space.
To get persistent devices names, use the mount option Device ID, UUID or
LABEL. In SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop, persistent device names are
enabled by default.
When using the mount option LABEL to mount a partition, define an appro-
priate label for the selected partition. For example, you could use the partition
label HOME for a partition intended to mount to /home.
If you intend to use quota on the file system, use the mount option Enable
Quota Support. This must be done before you can define quotas for users in
the YaST User Management module. For further information on how to
configure user quota, refer to
Mount Point
Specify the directory at which the partition should be mounted in the file
system tree. Select from various YaST proposals or enter any other name.
3 Select OK > Apply to activate the partition.
NOTE: Resize Filesystems
To resize an existing file system, select the partition and use Resize. Note, that
it is not possible to resize partitions while mounted. To resize partitions, un-
mount the respective partition before running the partitioner.
