mount -t msdos /dev/<your_partition_here> /mnt For example, I have a ms-dos partiton on my first partition of my first IDE drive, so I use mount -t msdos /dev/hda1 /mnt You can also add it to your fstab and it is automatically mounted when you boot linux. For your modem access in Linux, I suggest minicom. It's a lot like telix. - Craig -- // /\ | | | Craig Small VK2XLZ @home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ||==||===|==|=| [44.136.13.17] @play: [EMAIL PROTECTED] \\ \/ | | | finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for PGP key!
