Forgive me but are those TABS or SPACES between the parameters?

I used TABS and it didn't work.....will try again with spaces instead.

Also, it told me that /dev/sda1 will be checked for errors at next boot

Is there a way to just mount it thru SSH without altering the fstab? That way I could test to get the right parameters?

ok I tried it with spaces and still no worky... Sad

Maybe I am just destined to use Boxee and an HDD Sad

Didn't think it would be THIS tough to just add a 2nd HDD

Should i just re-install XBMCbuntu with the 2nd HDD attached? I installed it originally with JUST the SSD....the data HDD was unplugged

Code:
mount -t ext4 /dev/sda1 /mnt/data -o options,go,here

I'm just gonna re-install with the HDD in place.

Thanks for all of the help! I really appreciate it!

Hopefully I won't have these weird issues with the re-install Smile
