If you add the device to fstab, the media system will ignore the device and not try to mount it. Now, for that you need a device name, and you can get one using /dev/dsk/by-id I guess. I don't think there is any functonality lost here. -- Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett Novell :: SUSE R&D, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
