Still not there how can the be it should have a uuid number right

don't know then guess it doesn't have one lol!

NTFS-3G
wonder if this is the cause?
I gather you installed macfuse

but it should right???

Yea i sure did and it works great

well I can only think that that is the cause, can you not use the partition name, I think someone suggested that in this thread.

i could try it thanks for the tip

yeah that'll work for ya bhast. just make sure you don't accidentally rename your partitions at any point otherwise they'll pop up again ;) if you have spaces in the names too, post back in here and i'll let you know how to handle that (i'm blanking at the moment, but i can look it up). good luck.

Oops yep forgot to say FAT32 formatted volumes are not assigned a UUID. You'll have to use LABEL instead of UUID and change the fs type to 'msdos'.

eg. LABEL=WINDOWSXP none msdos rw,noauto 0 0

'WINDOWSXP' is replaced with your drive name. :)
