How can I mount /dev/sda7 partition on my CHOSEN mount point?

[winger9]

Hi folks

Summmary:

1. Is there a way to mount my spare partition /dev/sda7 on my chosen mount point
/home/knoppix/videos, instead of on /media/sda7, which is what /etc/fstab
specifies, ie

/dev/sda7 /media/sda7 reiserfs noauto,users,exec 0 0

2. I've got Knoppix live distro installed on hard disc, distro 7.0.2, kernel
release 3.3.7.

Thanks very much. John.


Full Details:

3. I'd like to mount my spare /dev/sda7 resiserfs partition on say
/home/knoppix/videos, an empty directory that I've created.

4. To do this, I was going to add the following entry in /etc/fstab:

/dev/sda7 /home/knoppix/videos reiserfs auto,users,exec 0 0

Note, I would use the "auto" option in column 4, to make the mount occur
automatically at boot time.

5. The present /etc/fstab (before adding anything to it) is:

# DEFAULT BASE FSTAB, UNCONFIGURED
proc /proc proc noauto 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
/dev/sda6 / reiserfs relatime 0 0
/dev/sda5 none swap defaults 0 0
# Added by KNOPPIX
noauto,users,exec 0 0
# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/sda3 /media/sda3 ntfs noauto,users,exec,umask=000,uid=knoppix,gid=knoppi x 0
0
# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/sda7 /media/sda7 reiserfs noauto,users,exec 0 0
# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/sr0 /media/sr0 auto noauto,users,exec 0 0
# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/sda2 /media/sda2 ntfs noauto,users,exec,umask=000,uid=knoppix,gid=knoppi x 0
0
# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/sda1 /media/sda1 ntfs noauto,users,exec,umask=000,uid=knoppix,gid=knoppi x 0
0

6. As a test, I commented out the following lines in /etc/fstab:

# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/sda7 /media/sda7 reiserfs noauto,users,exec 0 0

But I discovered that the system ADDS THESE LINES AGAIN to /etc/fstab. So I'm
concerned that if I add my new line, ie

/dev/sda7 /home/knoppix/videos reiserfs auto,users,exec 0 0

that even if I comment-out the following 2 lines, ie

# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/sda7 /media/sda7 reiserfs noauto,users,exec 0 0

that the system will re-add them. This would result in a CLASH between the 2
lines as follows:

/dev/sda7 /home/knoppix/videos reiserfs auto,users,exec 0 0
/dev/sda7 /media/sda7 reiserfs noauto,users,exec 0 0

(The reason I want to comment-out the line
/dev/sda7 /media/sda7 reiserfs noauto,users,exec 0 0
rather than remove it, is so that I can see what USED TO BE in /etc/fstab.)

MAIN QUESTION:
Is there a way to stop Knoppix re-adding the entry
/dev/sda7 /media/sda7 reiserfs noauto,users,exec 0 0
so that just my new entry
/dev/sda7 /home/knoppix/videos reiserfs auto,users,exec 0 0
is used.

7. If don't alter /etc/fstab, I can MANUALLY mount /dev/sda7 on my mount point
thus

$ sudo mount -t reiserfs /dev/sda7 /home/knoppix/videos

But this is not a sensible state of affairs because /etc/fstab still contains
/dev/sda7 /media/sda7 reiserfs noauto,users,exec 0 0
which is a contradiction.
