"Crusty old salt", eh? <snicker>

I never heard of supermount before until I followed your link. You're
right, though. Can't imagine why I'd want to use it. My wife (a
reluctant Windows user) rags on me about having to mount and unmount
things. But after using automount for a while, I prefer good old
mount/fstab.

Aye lads, there's the life: cold sea spray, the wind at me back, and
Linux on me laptop. Har maties!
