How do you do that? I once had one partition crash, and it would slow down the whole drive when it was mounted, including the "clean" partition. It would have been extremely useful to have been able to force that partition not to mount at all. Not only would that have prevented the slowdown, but also isolated the damaged portion of the drive until I could repair it. John A.
