jackt283 Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I have been working on a partition system that will allow me to have my home folder on a partition of it's own. To do this I have used NetInfo (by changin the path to my home folder)and it works, except when automatic login is enabled. The problem is that the home partition is not mounted until it has already loaded the user, so all my preferences revert back to default. Now i have tried using fstab to mount the partition on launch using the following line: /dev/disk0s3 /Volumes/USER vfat 1 2 The partition is fat32 format, and i think vfat is the correct type to use. But on launch it can't find the partition, and it doesn't mount until the desktop appears. Any one here know a bit about fstab and Mac OS X?
