Here's the fun catch: you shouldn't have to *un*mount /boot. If it's on a separate partition, you have to explicitly *mount* it. Here's the appropriate line from my fstab: /dev/hda1 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2 Most everything else will depend on your particular configuration, but just make sure that the line which corresponds to "/boot" in the second field has "noauto" somewhere in the fourth. -- Batou: Hey, Major...
