mounting a partition on boot

[John R. Sowden]

I recently installed ubunti 9.04 over Suse 11.1.  I had the home drirectory as 
a separate partition.  For some reason, the /dev/sda6 did not mount as part of 
the boot process.  I tried to umount the existing /home and mount /dev/sda6 
but it doesn't work consistantly.

Is ther a file that lists the mount commands that I can edit, or ...

Thanks, John
