That worked perfectly. Now I noticed that depending on what is pluged in first and or at start up such as a firewire drive or the compact flash card, the first one probed gets sda. So in my fstab file I set things for sda or sde which is listed in dmesg but it changes. How can I set it so the proper dev file to match the fstab? -adam
