this is an example of /etc/fstab:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
/dev/hdc1 / ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/hdc3 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdc2 /usr2 ext2 defaults 0 0
/dev/hda1 /dosc vfat defaults 0 0
/dev/hda5 /dosd vfat defaults 0 0
/dev/hdd /cdrom iso9660 defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /floppy vfat noauto,user 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy ext2 noauto,user 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
where usr2, /dosc and /dosd are mounted at startup, while /cdrom , /floppy
and /mnt/floppy is mounted as user whith simply mount /cdrom.
I hope that this is satisfactory.
Sorry for my english.
