Alan, thank you for the reply.

Yes, I do have libusb installed. The only drives or partitons listed in 
fstab that are not mounted are my 2 CD/DVD drives and my floppy drive. I 
believe CDs and DVDs are automounting, but I'll have to check tonight to 
be certain. I'll post again later.

Thanks again
