If supermount is in use, it will automatically scan every one of it's entries in /etc/fstab whenever you go into the /mnt directory. That includes when you do a dir of /mnt/floppy, /mnt/hd, or whatever. Whenever supermount does a scan of course it pulls a dir from every one of it's fstab entries. If you scan the /mnt dir with konqueror the same thing happens. LX
