Prelim statements: -I have a recently aquired Dell I8000 as some may know. -It has a removable floppy that fits in a bay in front. -I usually have my second Battery in this bay (it gives me between 5 and 6 active working hours that way) but from time to time I need to install the floppy hardware module for copying. -I'm using SuSE 7.1 with 2.4.0-4GB and X4 -If I plug the floppy module in and log in as either the root or a user, I need to manually mount the floppy to read/write to a disc if in a shell (not kde2 desktop, that's ok). Question: How do I alter /etc/fstab, or preferably anywhere else as I don't really like playing with that file for this type of purpose, so that on login it checks if the floppy hardware module is there and mounts /floppy automatically if so? thanks in advance fixing this will leave me with 1 major (on hold, I hate winmodems!),3 minor (in hand) and 8 nusance (get around when...) problems left. scsijon
