Not "on boot". If you want to mount at boot time, it has to be in fstab. 
otoh, I don't think she really wants it mounted at boot time, just have it
automatically on her desktop.  Personally, I think Marti's attacking the
wrong problem.  Her fstab, posted on kubuntu-users, was very odd, but
rather than fix it she's decided the problem is KDE and gone back to gnome. 
Now, not surprisingly, she's seeing exactly the same problem.
