Hi Michael, You could use either /mnt/kd/rc.elocal or /mnt/kd/rc.local .
/etc/fstab is symlinked to /tmp/etc/fstab and dynamically built on startup via the /etc/rc script. The following *untested* snippet is how I would do it... ============================== ## ## Mount a drive via /mnt/kd/rc.elocal or /mnt/kd/rc.local ## disk_dev="/dev/sdb1" disk_mnt="/tmp/mnt/disk" mkdir -p "$disk_mnt" echo "$disk_dev $disk_mnt ext2 noauto,noatime 0 0" >> /tmp/etc/fstab e2fsck -y "$disk_dev" >/dev/null echo "Mounting device '$disk_dev' at '$disk_mnt'" mount "$disk_mnt" >/dev/null ## ============================== Question, is using a second drive quite specialized for your situation ?
