I bought a brand new 3TB external drive for my birthday coming up, It's a WD My Book, it came as NTFS, and I'm trying to make it mount using a simple script on boot. (Not /etc/fstab, I ruined my comp. using that by accident and had to re-install).

I'm instead having a script run in /etc/init.d. The thing is, it's under /dev/sdf and I want it to mount in /exhd, the script seems to run, but it doesn't mount it.

Any help here, please?

Oops, I made a mistake, when I went to the disks partition, I was looking at /dev/sdf, not /dev/sdf1, and since that happened it was trying to mount /dev/sdf instead of my external drive at /dev/sdf1, in other words, I was looking in the wrong place. It works now. My research was found here: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/mounting-a-windows-xp-ntfs-partition-in-linux/
