Is there an easy way to test whether or not it's available? should it be mounted in a special way? Thanks for any info, my info is below. kernel config: http://davec.churchofthedollar.com/BigTom.config output of mount: /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,noatime) proc on /proc type proc (rw) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw) udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,nosuid) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw) /dev/sda2 on /var type reiserfs (rw,noatime,notail) /dev/sda3 on /usr type reiserfs (rw,noatime) /dev/sda4 on /home type reiserfs (rw,noatime) shm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) Thanks very much, -Dave -- The way that can be named is not the Way. -- gentoo-mips@gentoo.org mailing list
