My Linux system runs off of a small (170 MB) hard drive. 
I added a larger (app. 700 MB) hard drive in order to load all the Debian 
packages that I would like to get.

However, Dselect tells me that I don't have enough room to load the packages 
(which total approx. 450 MB).  My first thought was that I could change the 
Fstab file to reflect my new hard disk, and thus solve my problem.

I guess my major question is how can I configure Fstab to "let" Dselect know 
that I have the required space?  
(Alternatively, I'm probably completely off base and my question would then be, 
how can I get the system to acknowledge this newly mounted hard drive and be 
able to utilize the extra space for installing packages?)
