Hi,
I am trying to install ISPConfig on my VPS and I came up with a problem.
I needed to add ",usrquota,grpquota" to the partition with mount point /.
Well when I did "vi /etc/fstab" it showed me this:
# UNCONFIGURED FSTAB FOR BASE SYSTEM


And nothing else for me to modify.
How should I edit my fstab?
Thanks

Hello fellow Linux geek,

you can safely skip this step. The VPS filesystem is a bit different due to the nature of a virtualized system, and therfore has no concept of usr/grp quota being on or off for the mounted filesystems. By default, the system accounts for quotas on grps and users. So, even though fstab does not say it has quotas turned on the for the / filesystem, they really are.

Let us know how it goes. I have never used ispconfig, but I have heard good things about it.
