Well /etc/mtab was no symlink for me initially, therefore I started fiddling around with it but it didn't really change anything. When I remove it, I get the error message that /dev/sda1 can't be found in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab which is true, because it is not in /etc/fstab and I just deleted /etc/mtab. When I make /etc/mtab a symlink to /proc/mounts (isn't there something under /sys nowadays?) I get the old errors, though the format is slightly different to the old mtab. Well anyway, mounting stuff and seeing it under KDE still doesn't work for me. BTW, as I'm using the Kubuntu packages, I reported it as Kubuntu bug 8039 (https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=8039) Have fun, Marcus -- :: Marcus Thiesen :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] :: www.thiesen.org :: :: ICQ#108989768 :: 0x754675F2 :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] :: Do something every day that you don't want to do; this is the golden rule for acquiring the habit of doing your duty without pain Mark Twain
