How are you mounting it? If you are mounting using an explicit: mount -t ext3 /dev/md0 /mnt, but have not modified your /etc/fstab correctly (thats the file that is used at boot-time to decide where and with what options filesystems are to be mounted), then this behavior would make perfect sense. -davidc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
