- Besides the 'sd1a' another one mentioned, you should consider deleting
- the ',noauto'. This way you will have it mounted automatically. If
- there is another way to do this nicely (I just don't want to have
- a separate file browser window for my external hd, but for a floppy
- that I insert, I want it), I would be glad to hear about it.
- My problem is that if you decide to boot the NeXT without the external
- drive, you are only able to enter the single user mode in a pretty
- small window (at least if you boot in 'picture mode').
