Be aware, in 10.3 they changed also the old (and well known) concept
of naming IDE drives. Its no longer /dev/hda, no... they appear now
all as SCSI drives and have monster device names to mount (that
doesnt fit in a console window) composed out of the drive
manufacture, type, serial number and partition.

Change to device rather than device id in the fstab option when
installing/formatting :-)

Could not find out so far for what its good, just for the fun of
changeing something.
