I have tried to put in /etc/fstab the following entry for a SDHC card:

but Ubuntu when boots tells me that the device is not ready to mount and I was given the

option to skip mounting which I do.The entry is for trying that everybody

could write to the SDHC card.Now,I cannot put tcpdump writing to the SDHC card 

but the card mounts automatically without any entry in fstab.

Removable devices such as SDHC cards are best handled by the autodetect/automount processes. If you want to mount it at boot time then the system will expect it to always be there, I believe.

Is that a fair expectation?
