I need to apologize...

Of course you are right...

For as long as I have been using *nix I have never created a mount point
and not mounted it, or used it...

Plus I don't do much GUI stuff, so I wasn't real familiar with that...

So unmounted partitions in the fstab show up as disk drives.

I guess my next question is..

Why create a partition and not use it??

I user all mine....
