	Thanks for the updated info on this Mark.  Still not a complete
solution though, as if I allow all partitions to be 'volume.ignore=true'
I have 3 linux distros + windows + data partitions that are shared for
15 partitions ( I think that would be a cluttered environment in the
Computer Drawer!).
	Perhaps there could be a field entry in fstab and the mount command
that would make each mounted partition show up as per the admin's desires?
