I'm not 100% certain that it's busybox mount "limitation", but it's my best guess. Doing it in fstab is better anyway. About your suggestion for a default entry in fstab, I don't think that's going to work reliable. Not everyone has an USB device mounted on /dev/sda1, maybe he even has an other device on /dev/sda1 or the USB device is not vfat formatted. So sorry, you have to be a bit less lazy and use mount -t or add it to fstab ;-) The update option will preserve the entry when you move to a newer Bering-uClibc release. > > ...Izzy > Eric ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
