I have "noauto" specified in my fstab entry, but it still gets mounted anyway. I suspect some auto-mounter is mounting it. No big deal. Anyway, you should add a line to /etc/fstab that looks something like this: /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs defaults,ro 0 0 You probably also want to add ",users,uid=<username>,gid=<usergroup>" right after the "defualts,ro" (this is the options column). Those options will allow you to mount/umount it and you will be the owner (of course, you should replace <username> and <usergroup> with your username/group or user id/group id). On another point, you do realize you are still running the original kernel that came with Fedora Core 3, don't you? You should at least update the kernel, and if you have not updated anything, you really need to run updates. There have been some major bug fixes in, for example, udev, since the FC3 release. You can update with up2date, yum, or apt, whichever you prefer. Jonathan
