It states that fstab-sync is not primarily intended to be run by the user/admin, and that it should be controlled through some XML files. The question is: Is there some howto type document that a guy can used to get started with this system? The task at hand is that I have a USB drive that it wants to put at /media/USB_DISK. I really want to have it at /mnt/usb, but, since I'm trying to give this whole thing a shot, I'd settle for /media/usb. Thanks, Peter PS: Thanks for the CC, Rahul. I subscribe to the digest and the CC makes it MUCH easier for me to reply! -P
