I fiddled with the fstab and got it working. Thanks
for the tip.

How are the values in the entries delimited? Is any
white space just the same as lots of white space?

White space is the delimiter, so you may use tabs or blank spaces.
Lining things up is strictly for aesthetics.

Yes. Spaces, tabs, multiples, singles, as long as it's the same line and
has at least one space between fields (and no spaces within fields such as
