I have my home directories on their own partiton..... but I wonder if that is so considering that I ran out of disk space last week. I'm going to share my ftab with you and ask you how I would know if it is going to the /dev/hda4 or just /mnt/hda4 (is the home partition being used?) One more thing.... how do i get it to be used? /dev/hda2 / ext3 defaults,noatime 1 1 /dev/hda4 /mnt/hda4 ext3 defaults,noatime 1 1 /dev/sda1 swap swap sw,pri=1 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0622 0 0 none /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs defaults 0 0 # Dynamic entries /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 vfat noauto,users,exec,umask=000 0 0 /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3 ext3 noauto,users,exec 0 0 This is my understanding of this fstab: /dev/hda2 is being mounted to root /dev/hda4 is being mounted to /mnt/hda4 /dev/sda1 is my swap drive I have no clue about the next two lines. I think the #Dynamic entries are just the directories which can be mounted on-the-fly. Is this understanding correct? --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
