Hi
I am running Ubuntu and my fstab file looks like this:
and fdisk like this:
I have 2 icons on my desk top that link to 2 separate hard drives which i THINK relate to these sda and sdb. I am guessing that this is because of something in my fstab file?? Or does some other file do this?
i have a link to hda1 in my /mnt directory.
QUESTION 1 "How do i put a link to HDA1 on the desktop?"
QUESTION 2 "How do i put a link to my DVDROM (CDROM0) on the desktop?"
QUESTION 3 "How do i put a link to my DVD recorder (dvdrecorder) on the desktop?"
many thanks
