Quota problems after initial setup

Show me that /etc/fstab. It’s not seeing your device.

0o wtf?

[code][root@sd-93518]:(70.8kb)~# /etc/fstab
bash: /etc/fstab: Permission denied
[root@sd-93518]:(70.8kb)~# exit
exit
cissss@sd-93518:~$ sudo /etc/fstab
sudo: /etc/fstab: command not found
cissss@sd-93518:~$

[/code]

I’m too tired forgot “nano”.

I downloaded it and it reads:

# /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/sda2 during installation
UUID=6a5161d4-9211-45c9-8920-571fa1b2cec0 /               ext4    errors=remount-ro,noatime 0       1
# /boot was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=42e4b978-b257-4309-8ba2-bb0e1a283e19 /boot           ext4    defaults        0       2
# swap was on /dev/sda3 during installation
UUID=75f4a7cb-ef42-4cf2-91e1-9c17b96cf58e none            swap    sw              0       0

Change that line up above to look like this:

UUID=6a5161d4-9211-45c9-8920-571fa1b2cec0 /               ext4    usrquota,errors=remount-ro 0       1

So, type nano /etc/fstab

Then navigate to the line shown and make that there change… then run the mount setup as before:

quotaoff -a
service quota stop
mount -o remount /
quotacheck -auMF vfsv1
quotaon -uv /
service quota start

Now, you should be able to setdisk

Please do that! :slight_smile:

Sorry to nag you again, just noticed this after I set up setdisk. This is my main user.

I solved it by assigning new quota.
