I am not clear the internal hardware structure, it is an Acer ASPIRE
5920 laptop.
I added a line of "/dev/sda6 /hom/project/work ext3
defaults,noauto,user=project 0 0" to the fstab, but it was actually
not working, there was an error of "bad line in fstab" during boot
(the user is project). Was it the problem as you concerned that kernel
could not see it?
Thank you.
