Dear Rashkae, I am somewhat familiar with using the Terminal in Mac OS <a href="http://10.5.5.">10.5.5.</a> I have no problem editing text configuration files - I just don't want to make a mistake and lose data or functionality. I am ready for your instructions. Thanks. - nineheadedhydra <div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 4:59 PM, Rashkae <<a href="mailto:ubuntu@tigershaunt.com">ubuntu@tigershaunt.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c">Edgar Sarino wrote: > Dear ubuntu users, > > I have no problem accessing the boot drive (36 GB HD), but mounting the 137 > GB HD disappears after every shutdown or reboot, and I have to mount it > again.

The good news, you're about to get a hands on linux education. Before I or others type long instructions, I need to know.
