I'm reconstructing an RH 8 setup which was wiped out when the drive
failed. I have two partitions created by another OS which I need to
access with RH 8 (FAT-16 on /hdb1 and jfs on /hdb8) . I had saved a
copy of /fstab from the previous installation, which worked fine but
have forgotten how to create the mount points for the system to use --
fails to mount either during booting because of non-existant points. No
doubt the answer is staring me right in the face, but I don't delve into
the details of the system often enough . . . also possiblity of
creeping CRS.

TIA
Pete
