Kamping_Kaiserso you need a new line in fstab in each system, and a new directory in /mnt03:24
Kamping_Kaiserso say `mkdir /mnt/Edubuntu` then add the line `/dev/hda1       /mnt/Edubuntu           ext3    defaults        0       0` to your fstab03:25
Kamping_Kaiserand chnage Edubuntu for plain Ubuntu and hda1 with hda3 where required03:25
squareyeshave put the line in /etc/fstab,  /dev/hda3       /media/hda3     ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1 all show in /media03:26
squareyeswill give that a try thanks03:27
