I use 'UUID=' to identify each file system, in my fstab, with the 'noauto' option. Create a directory in /media/<device name> and use the mount command. I use this for usb sticks and externel hard drives. The 'blkid' command will give you the UUID for a file system. Mine way is all manual not sure of the automagic way, either way 'UUID=' is useful. -- Peace Greg Madden -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
