Well, I can tell you what I did to get mine to work, ymmv. Mine is an ide 250. Fstab had it listed as a /dev/hdd4 but harddrake saw it: /dev/hdd I changed /etc/fstab to: /dev/hdd /mnt/zip auto user,noauto 0 0 and now I can mount it. I have supermount disabled still at this point. I'm just happy I can manually mount everything now. :-) So anyway, try changing your /etc/fstab to /dev/hdb and mounting it. hth, -s
