You could either run it early: /usr/sbin/updfstab mount /mnt/floppy perl /mnt/floppy/myscript.pl or cheat and fetch the files with mtools: mcopy a:myscript.pl /tmp perl /tmp/myscript.pl >I'm also having problems when I run the script on a machine with 2 CDs. > If I use te previous script with changes to mount the CD it will work >as long as I only have one cd-rom, but if the machine has 2 cd-roms it >won't work.

Hope this helps, Phil
