Utterly strange! Some ideas: 1. Do you _really_ use the correct file? 2. Do you have the /etc mounted as a ram disk? Try e.g.: a. Edit another file in /etc save it and reboot. b. Open a terminal window and do 'cp /etc/fstab $HOME/fstab.out1' Do the changes to /etc/fstab, save them and do 'cp /etc/fstab $HOME/fstab.out2'. Reboot and compare the three files. -- Jon Haugsand, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.norges-bank.no -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
