df -h (1) does show that /dev/hda4 is mounted to the proper point but that still leaves the question whether or not it is being used for /home and why I ran out of disk space..
As for the scsi drive (2), it is VERY small and slow (old?) so I figured that it would be good for a swap drive.
The other commands you wished me to issue (ls -l /mnt/hda3 & hda4 revealed where I had placed my ripped music and that /mnt/hda4 is being used as home (3). I suppose that since fstab has /dev/hda4 being mounted to /mnt/hda4 it means that it truly is being used.
I just read Jerry's mailing and it seems that my understanding of what fstab does is flawed.
Hmmmmmm.....
Wait.... there it is! df does show it!
