don't do that if there is a chance that the XP box won't be up when you boot...
it'll cause probs.. better that you make a new bash script put it in /usr/sbin and put all your mount commands in there.. ie: #!/bin/sh smbmount /blah/blah..... smbmount /blah/blah..... save it as mountXP or something.. then make it executable with chmod 755 /usr/sbin/mountXP then whenever you want to mount your partitions, just run the file... you could even make an unmountXP put links on your desktop... makes things nice and simple.. my /sbin is full of shortcut files I've knocked up to save typing.. rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:expert-owner@;linux-mandrake.com]On Behalf Of Matthew O.
