It saves possibly much kernel memory. A good strategy, but should be accompanied with a note that any file systems mounted on /etc/fstab that are NOT in the kernel, must be mounted towards the end. I spent a fair amount of time trying to figure out why the loadable filesystems didn't load until I moved them to the end of my fstab. Either (or both?) / and /usr must be mounted first, I never got as far as figuring out the minimum. -john == jfieber@indiana.edu =========================================== == http://fieber-john.campusview.indiana.edu/~jfieber ============
