I'm trying to mount my sdb1 to /home/peter/docs. At the moment when I use the command su - nautilus, sdb1 gets mounted in media/Storage (and shows up on the desktop), but without using su - nautilus I don't know how to access it.

I tryed adding the line: /dev/sdb1 /home/peter/docs ext3 defaults 1 2 to my fstab, but that failed and fedora wouldn't boot, I got an error saying something about magic-numbers(??) on that line of fstab. I reverted the change using this (http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=122087) (thank you Seve).

So now I'm stuck wondering what I did wrong? Any ideas how I can get this working.

I'm on FC9-Preview x86_64.
