[clug] Trouble mounting USB drive partitions

[Brendan Henderson]

Got these entries in /etc/fstab :-

/dev/sda1  /mnt/usbhd1  vfat noauto,user,rw,syc 0 0
/dev/sda1  /mnt/usbhd2  vfat noauto,user,rw,syc 0 0
/dev/sda3  /mnt/usbhd3  vfat noauto,user,rw,syc 0 0
/dev/sda4  /mnt/usbhd4  vfat noauto,user,rw,syc 0 0

And I can issue 'mount /mnt/usbhd1' and 'mount /mnt/usbhd2' and all works
fine but when issuing 'mount /mnt/usbhd3' I get error 'mount : /dev/sda3 is
not a valid block device' and the same for 4. Same result with 'mount -t
vfat /dev/sda3 /mnt/usbhd3' and 4. /mnt/usbhd3 and 4 do exist. Anybody got a
heads up.
