This happens as user or root and scares me when it happens as root as I do not want to mess up this install. SuSE is on hda and Win98 is on hdb. Any thoughts?
Tom, This is a guess and only a guess. If Win98 is on hdb, then your C: drive would be /dev/hdb1, but your D: drive in all likelihodo is NOT /dev/hdb2. That's because /dev/hdb2 is an extended partition into which DOS/Win writes its logical partitions. On my WinNT machine, my D: drive is /dev/hdb5, believe it or not! To check this out, su to root and run fdisk /dev/hdb. Type "p" to print the partition information. You should see where your drives are that way.
Could samba somehow affect this?
I wouldn't think so, unless you're trying to do an smbmount. What I do is a "regular" mount, and that does fine.
