I've installed Mandrake 7.2 (APC Pocketbook) with all current updates and
cannot get any changes to the PATH to work.

I downloaded and installed InstantMounter and added "/opt/instantmounter/"
to /etc/profile.(original /etc/profile hereunder). InstantMounter runs ok,
but some of the graphics fail to load (ie the red/green unmounted/mounted
indicators).

Any help appreciated. Haven't had problems with PATH in earlier Mandrake or
RedHat distros.
