When module autoloading doesn't work, you'll have to make sure that everything needed is present. While the mount error message might be useless, is there any reasonable error report in dmesg? BTW, you can mount /proc and then look for PCI dev information and partitioning information there. $ mount -t proc none /proc $ cat /proc/bus/pci/devices (vendor/device string is on position 2) $ cat /proc/partitions and $ cat /proc/filesystems are your friends. -hwh -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
