The problem is basically what the subject says..
My external harddrive (fat), only mounts when I manually do 'sudo mount -a', but not on boot..
my fstab is:
#
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
none /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/sr0 /media/cd iso9660,udf ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/dvd /media/dvd auto ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
#/dev/fd0 /media/fl auto user,noauto 0 0
/dev/sda5 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda6 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/sda7 / ext4 defaults 0 1
/dev/sda3 /media/Dados ext4 defaults 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /media/Externo vfat users,iocharset=utf8,umask=000 0 0

ok it still doesnt work..
if I manually do 'sudo mount -a' it does mount.. but not automatically on boot:\
any ideas?

If it is a usb-drive, it may not be ready by the time fstab is acted upon ...
You _could_ do a manual mount in /etc/rc.local

its probably that I guess... I'll make 'mount /dev/sdb1' in rc.local then..

I guess you could also use 'rootdelay=8' in the kernel invocation line in menu.lst ... (but then there are the scores of people almost competing as to who can boot the fastest - me, I dont care whether it takes 10 seconds or 10 times that - I only boot after a kernel/glibc update)
Personally I prefer rc.local, but each to his (or her) own ...

I boot everyday so I guess I'll stick with the rc.local solution;)
