SC101/Mount Helper

This script will allow you to put entries into your fstab to attach/mount your sc101 partitions with a simple "mount -a". Here is the stab i use to give an example.

i use the _netdev option this way it doesn't try to mount or attach my drive before my network has started.

                                        continue

                                        mount $nbd $2 -o $4
                                        stop=1
                                fi
                        fi
                done
        fi
fi

should be as easy as typing nano /sbin/mount.ut and then pasteing the above file then just ctrl+x y enter. oh and don't forget to chmod +x /sbin/mount.ut

Then just make sure you put your partition ids in your /etc/fstab like i did above and you should be good to go if you have any problems let me know. I have only tested this on ubuntu but i don't see why it wouldn't work on others. From what i understand they all use mount helpers in pretty much the same way
