here is my /etc/fstab entry ( that works) UUID=686C-7E81 /media/usb_DAWGS vfat users,atime,rw,nodev,noexec,nosuid,noauto 0 0 ( that was all one line) in the /media folder is a file called .hal-mtab I was trying to add an entry in there for this, so my wife could unmount it, but I was not successful. The fstab entry still mounts it: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2008-08-16 15:14 usb_DAWGS -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 Registered Ubuntu User #12459 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
