    thanks for replying but it got me another doubt. I saw the image in the link you had given me , In the permission's section I saw kudzu, which I have never seen before. What is it doing sitting there???

    Notice it is a RedHat fstab and is only on lines about the CDROM and floppy.

    Use the Google.

    * Or read below the fstab:

    Options, including if the filesystem should be mounted at boot. (kudzu is an option specific to Red Hat and Fedora Core.)
