Hello, I've got a working usb2 external IDE hard drive running on a 5.4-stable box. My problem is sometimes when i connect it it is given a designation of da0 while other times it is given a designation of da1 or da2. I'd like to create a fstab entry for this drive so that when it is connected it is mounted and when disconnected it is unmounted cleanly. I was wondering if this was possible or if not if there was a way of giving it da0 or da1 everytime the drive was connected? Thanks. Dave.
