aaron,

i actually do this....

/dev/hda /mnt/fat32 vfat umask=000 defaults 0 0

i'm not sure what you mean by it being wrong. it works great sticking it in there! like i said, not very experienced. i do a lot of things which you're not supposed to do, only because i can then get it working. for example, my microdrive could be in my card reader or my pcmcia slot. if it's in the card reader, then /dev/sda1 gets mounted. if it's in the pcmcia slot (at boot up) then a little line in my rc.local gets /dev/hde1 mounted.

can you explain why it's not the correct way to do it? are there any disadvantages to doing it the way i suggest i want it to mount at boot time and my way works fine for me.

hoping to learn..........

andrew.
