How do I permanently mount my 137 GB HD to my Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop Edition on my Dell Precision 450 Workstation?

[Edgar Sarino]

Dear Rashkae,

How do I add this line:

UUID=9887bf55-f0c9-4472-bf4d-
>
> d84e5669d21c /mnt/data ext3 noatime   0  2


to the fstab file?

Please forgive my inexperience.

Thanks.
