here my /proc/filesystems ~# cat /proc/filesystems nodev sysfs nodev rootfs nodev bdev nodev proc nodev sockfs nodev futexfs nodev tmpfs nodev pipefs nodev eventpollfs nodev devpts cramfs nodev ramfs nodev devfs nodev mqueue ext3 nodev usbfs nodev usbdevfs iso9660 vfat and i add here my /etc/fstab too # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> /dev/hda3 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/hda4 /home ext3 defaults 0 2 /dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/fd0 /floppy auto defaults,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0 /mnt/sda1 /pen vfat noauto,user,async,rw 0 0 maybe, should i substitute /mnt/sda1 with /dev/sda1 in /etc/fstab ??
