This looks like some kind of race condition between kernel and udev, but I don't really understand why udev doesn't pick on the new devices automatically, as soon as the kernel creates them. I have tried to add WAIT_FOR="/dev/exthd1" to my udev rule, but it didn't help.
Any help would be appreciated.
I don't have that problem and I'm using a 700GB external HDD, but I use UUID in fstab, this is my fstab:UUID=83D8-C147 /home/jimmy/1-Windows vfat uid=1000,gid=1000,auto,rw,users 0 0
UUID=2d07c642-9322-4245-b84e-0ad185e47b9f /home/jimmy/2-Linux ext3 users,atime,auto,rw,nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
First as Superuser I use the command "blkid" to get the UUID's. -- Jimmy Johnson Bakersfield, CA. U.S.A. Registered Linux User #380263 K.I.S.S. (Keep it simple stupid)
