<title>Accessing local and remote file systems
<sect>Purpose
<p>
At boot time, <em/Linux/ reads the file /etc/fstab. This
file describes all partitions and network volumes the system will
access. This file defines the following relations:
<itemize>
<item>Where do we find the resource?
<item>Where does it go?
<item>What type is it?
<item>Which options apply?
</itemize>
The current menu answers the first three questions above, and may
also include the size of the partition. When the partition
is of type <em/DOS/, the <em/DOS/ drive letter is appended as
a reference.
<sect>Notice
<p>
Understand that the operation you are about to do only defines
the mapping between resources (hard drive partitions or
network volumes) and your local filesystem tree.
Removing a line from this menu does not affect the data
at all. On the other hand, if you remove a line and you reboot,
you will find an empty directory where you used to find
the data of the resource. The data is still there, but the
connection is not.
