===Investigation 5: How do we automatically mount a new partition in Fedora?===
{{Admon/note|Use your Fedora host |Perform these steps on the '''Fedora Host''' (f13host).}}
#Create the empty directory /lab5
#Verify that the <code>/dev/sda5</code> partition is not in use, then reformat <code>/dev/sda5</code> as ext3
#Check the man page for <code>/etc/fstab</code> by entering the command <code>man fstab</code>
#Edit your <code>/etc/fstab</code> file to mount the partition <code>/dev/sda5</code> to <code>/lab5</code>
#Issue this command:
#*<code>mount -a</code>
#What does that command do?
#Confirm that the partition mounted and copy some files to it.
