The same settings work fine on Redhat & various flavours of Debian.

The noauto in my fstab means I don't need a disk in the drive on boot.

I believe it has to do with either the way Gentoo deal with /dev, or I
have left something out of the kernel.

It can't work unless I have /dev/hdb or something like it. I have to
mount to something IDE.

Thanks anyway
