I'd guess you're right.
What I think is going on is that the scsi module is not loading which is why
when fstab got to the lines to load /dev/sdxx it died. When I remove the
/dev/sdxx lines it boots normally.
diskdrake must have created mount points /test1 and /test2 but nothing was
ever mounted there so they were just normal directories.
well shit. ;-)
How do I get the kernel to load the scsi module before it reads /ect/fstab ?
Thanks,
Gavin
