Affirmative! I have used the diskdruid, fsck, and autopartition options, and have found *one* way to screw myself up so that rescue can't automount. I built a good disk (rescue could automount), and extracted the partition information with sfdisk. I built a disk-building script, and gave the partition information extracted from the good disk. Rescue couldn't automount these disks. Pulled my hair out. Finally, added two things to my disk-building script, and now Happiness Happens: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mumble bs=512 count=64 sfdisk --leave-last --DOS /dev/mumble <<donemumbling (partition information) donemumbling With these two tweaks (the dd and the flags to sfdisk), rescue recognizes my pink-tie built disks every time. Further info/help available upon request. I'm still missing the hair, prognosis is poor.

I have tried this may times and have not succeeded even once. Are we talking about the same operation. -- ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University One Trinity Place.
