Hey Darren Thanks again for the replies :) They totally help. >You can rebuild the contents of fstab from the output of `mount`.

Ah crap... i already rebooted. But, when i did a diff on fstab from the one downloaded from the source tree there was no difference? I don't think my system was properly mounted from before. Do you know any way to set this up easily? I got what was listed above, but no floppy or zip drive liste?
