[TriLUG] fedora craziness

Please submit all children-bearing applications between 6:00pm and 6:01pm
EDT at the following address..  heh

Glad I could help, though!  Now there's a command (I think) that will update
your /etc/fstab (if it doesn't happen automatically) so that those
partitions get automounted in the future..  However, as you may have
noticed, I've killed my nearest linux machine so I can't look it up for
you..  I think it's a switch used with mount, so man mount and see what you
come up with (or hope someone else will chime in with the right magic
words).

Good luck!

Cheers,
~Brian
