</div>If you haven't manually edited your /etc/fstab it should work fine.<br></blockquote><div><br>So just to confirm then I can just enable it and when i boot Ubuntu I shouldnt notice any difference or have to change anything?<br>
I havnt manually edited /etc/fstab on this pc, but I do sometimes manually mount an intenral NTFS sata drive - will this continue to work as per usual?<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
