you don't, instead change the behavior of the `auto' filesystem: printf "ext2\nvfat\nmsdos\nhfs\n" > /etc/filesystems list whatever filesystems in whatever order you want them tested. /etc/filesystems is used instead of /proc/filesystems, so ommiting a filesystem forbids mounting of that type of filesystem via the `auto' flag. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
