Hi Andrew. Okay, that looks like mine (now). Rebooting will, of course
initiate the changes in /etc/fstab, but its easier just to do (as root):
mount -a
That should reread /etc/fstab and remount all your listed drives.
Don't forget to right-click on your Zip icon under KDE (not sure about Gnome?)
and pick properties, then check to make sure its pointing to /dev/hdd4.
Hope this helps!
