No C. I can easily write it in bash shell, that's not the problem. It's just that it will not work for file systems in a file. We need a fallback. I can make the script ask a question or give a warning and provide a dummy fstab. > It seems a little bit of a cop-out to say "We can't produce an /etc/fstab, > so you'll have to do it yourself" You are right. In 90%, it can be done, so let's do it. Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
