I hate fstab. All those optional fields. Isn't there a gui for it? Anyway, I had this: /dev/sda1 /mnt/removable auto user,iocharset=iso8859-15,kudzu,codepage=850,noauto,umask=0,exec 0 0 Not knowing which auto you meant, I amended the first: [EMAIL PROTECTED] richard]$ mount /mnt/removable/ mount: fs type noauto not supported by kernel Hmmm, you must have meant the second. Actually, I'm much encouraged by the fact that you can swap cards willy-nilly. It means the problem is with my setup, and not with Linux. Perhaps a reinstall or some newer hardware will help -- this is a Celeron 300, on some random cheap motherboard. Richard -- "Get up and turn I loose"
