Certainly, a little while ago, when I pulled a root drive out of one server, which was powered down, and shoved it into a hot swap bay of an identical system, /dev/sdb[123] were created, but since it's not in /etc/fstab, it wasn't mounted. I mounted it manually. Removable media do get automounted, but to /media/whatever. mark _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
