Hello, I guess you're right since the sd card works fine and doesn't interfere with the crunchbang boot up when in a reader. Strange but not a problem!

Hi, I haven't tried that yet.Will have a go and let you know if it works....

Thanks to all of you for the advice and help. At least I learned some more about Crunchbang! Did lots of research but couldn't find any other suggestions apart from deleting the last line of the fstab however as we know the last line is for info only so that can't be it.Have checked boot several times and changed order between hard disc, cd drive and removable drive but the little eee pc is determined to try and read /write the sd card on booting up!I don't have any problems if I leave removable drives in a usb socket though. Aside from that niggle,I'm really enjoying Crunchbang and all the new stuff to learn! Thanks again for the advice,great forum. shaddyk

Ah yes,thanks very much for the information and yes it did work. If you're still interested, here's my fstab:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=09d877c3-92a2-483c-9edb-b44582b946b5 /               ext4    errors=remount-ro 0       1
# swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation
UUID=8aad1075-d13d-49b7-ae1f-d59d22055c09 none            swap    sw              0       0
#/dev/sdb1       /media/usb0     auto    rw,user,noauto  0       0

So clearly /dev/sdb1 is the sd card (which I currently have formatted to Fat32)

/dev/sdb1: UUID="340D-F0A3" TYPE="vfat"

I'm assuming the auto, no auto have something to do with the problem...I'm basically just trying to make more memory space available to the eee pc 701 ,not boot off the sd card. Is there a very obvious problem showing?I'll do some more searching.. Thank you again for all your help! shaddyk.

Many thanks for the quick reply, I've tried to get fstab going however when I enter terminal sudo /etc/fstab or just /etc/fstab I just keep getting bash:simba command not found. I've also tried navigating through file manager to file sytem/etc/fstab but the files show empty. I'm sorry if I'm making a really obvious mistake and I have looked around to find a solution to this but not come up with one yet...Any ideas? Thank you.

Hi guys,I'm running Crunchbang 3.2.0-4-486 on my Asus Eee pc 701 4GB,I'm a newbie to Crunchbang and love it. I've been trying to find a solution to my one problem for days now . If I leave an sd card in the reader it slows down crunchbang as it seems to be checking for caching mode page on the sd card. I am only using the sd card for extra storage space and music not for booting up crunchbang. It also slows down shutdown. If I leave a memory stick in a usb socket it doesn't cause this problem just when I leave an sd card in the reader. I have tried with several different sd cards formatted with fat 32, ntfs and ext4 but each time it interrupts the crunchbang boot up and shutdown.I've not managed to find an answer out there to this,can anyone help me out on this? Many thanks.
