Hi Anne.
I did as you recommended and removed the hdb line from my fstab file. I
didn't alter the scd1 line because I don't know what I'm doing so I have
no idea just how it should be edited.
BTW both /hdb and /scd1 appear as subdirectories of my mnt directory but
neither appears in my dev directory.
Does this offer any insight??
