I used the same layout in fstab, as I use for mounting FAT paritions. I had a good look at the man page for mount today, and realised where I'd gone wrong. FAT /dev/hdb5 /mnt/hdb5 vfat auto,umask=0 0 0 ext3 /dev/hdb8 /mnt/hdb8 ext3 defaults 0 0 Now the ext3 partitions open ok from the desktop launcher. Thanks for all the replies. Nigel.
