Hello Everybody,

I have dual boot system with "Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4
(Nahant)" installed. I have installed ntfsmount and fuse modules. I am using
ntfsmount to mount the windows partitions. I have put the following entries
in /etc/fstab file:

/dev/hde5 /mnt/win_e fuse.ntfs locale=be_BY.UTF-8 0 0
/dev/hde6 /mnt/win_f fuse.ntfs locale=be_BY.UTF-8 0 0

At the time of booting, I get the following error in "/var/log/messages"
file:

Sep  1 20:39:34 ps3244 mount: fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse'
first
Sep  1 20:39:54 ps3244 kernel:  [<c010408c>] cpu_idle+0x1f/0x34
Sep  1 20:39:54 ps3244 cups: cupsd startup succeeded
Sep  1 20:39:34 ps3244 mount: fuse_mount failed.

When I try to mount windows partitions manually using 'modprobe fuse' and
ntfs commands, it gets mounted successfully.
Could you please tell me how to mount windows partitions automatically at
boot time without any error?
