Hi Alex
That is not what I want. I do not wish to execute any statement apart from the options in fstab. Also the method you told does not work at all because if the root mounts that partition, other uses cannot create files/directories(I tested it, did you?)
It works fine here. Are you *sure* that the filesystem on this partition is ext2 and not something that doesn't support Unix IDs like vfat?
Paul.
