Hi,

Many thanks for trying to help me out!! 

I actually use fvwm, not gnome. What command line option could I use? 

Also, when I add the line to my fstab, how do I figure out what to put in? I
know the lines to be put in, but how do I tell it that /media/cdrom has to
correspond to such and such device? Previously, under FC4- it would come out
with the installation, pretty much.

Not particularly germane to the discussion, but I wonder why they got rid of it
from the middle of FC4?

Many thanks again and best wishes,
Trotter
