Hey all,

i've an external firewire and i want to automount it when powered on.

when i mount it manually using :

mount -t vfat /dev/sdb9 /mnt/Fat32  //this is a fat 32 partition for files exchange between MacOS X and YDL

it works well

however if the external firewire disk is powered on when booting YDL 4.0.1 is hanging undefinitely on "hardware probing"...

i'd like better having mounting automayically when powered on...

a solution ?

my related fstab line :

/dev/sdb9               /mnt/Fat32              vfat    defaults,umask=0 0 0
