Hope that fstab helps, though it is simple as it gets. It works though. |

1: Home built; Abit NF7 ver 2.0 w/ AMD 2500+ CPU, 1GB of ram and right now two 80GB hard drives. |
| 91 |
2: Home built; Iwill KK266-R w/ AMD 1GHz CPU, 256MBs of ram and a 4GB drive. |
| 92 |
3: Home built; Gigabyte GA-71XE4 w/ 800MHz CPU, 128MBs of ram and a 2.5GB drive. |
| 93 |
4: Compaq Proliant 6000 Server w/ Quad 200MHz CPUs, 128MBs of ram and a 4.3GB SCSI drive. |
| 94 |

All run Gentoo Linux, all run folding. #1 is my desktop, 2, 3, and 4 are set up as servers. |
