Linux-voodoo?
Beginning to sound a bit like the old Apple OS support "Gee, try
reloading things in a different order. Why? We don't know but
sometimes that solves the problem." Sigh.
Among a few dozen files peeked at it does seem that fstab was one of
them and all seemed in order there, at least to this semi-literate Linux
hacker. Will look again.
Headed out to visit the neighbors for coffee and dessert ... will give
your suggestions a try a little later and report back. Perhaps a little
sugar and pleasant chatter will clear the mind ... ;-)
