I tried the following which is the last part of the directions for mounting with UUID's.
Then update the initramfs: $ sudo update-initramfs -u and flash the new initramfs $ sudo flash-kernel Even with both drives having UUID's in /etc/fstab and then doing the above two commands after putting both drives in the /etc/fstab fiile when I reboot it still does not automount the second disk.

That switching between sda and sdb is the reason you need to use the UUIDs, from what I remember. So you should probably use UUIDs for all the USB partitions. Someone else will have to chime in here, but I think you also need to update the fstab in the slug's flash memory. There's a very simple command to do this but I can't recall it for the life of me... -Stuart On 6/18/07, Aaron Klein <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yes I was trying to search the website and didnt find anything (i > guess I was using the wrong keywords) and then I went to search this > mail list with the web search but got a 500 error page.
