I see that others pointed you in the right direction. I would just
like to point out a few other things:
a. Linux does not use FAT concepts or terminology. Understanding that
is one of the first steps in understanding a real OS design.
b. As one respondent pointed out, /etc/fstab is the file from which the
init process reads information about what filesystems to mount, and this
process is considerably more sophisticated than simply running a script
like autoexec. From the nature of your question, it seems like you've
not had much experience with configuring a linux system to operate correctly.
I suggest you do a bit more reading of some of the linux documentation
before you start playing around with things like this. I recommend you to
the book "Running Linux" by Matt Welsh (among many others).
c. This question is entirely off-topic for this mailing list. Please put
such questions into the appropriate fora, such as comp.os.linux.setup on
usenet.
Thx,
