Hello, and a good evening to you all.  I have a box that has been
running slack 8.1 for awhile now.  When I did the install (many moons
ago) I fdisked my drives like a man, and setup the partitions I
wanted.  All Good.  While going through the install I setup/formatted all the
partitions using the stock install program.  Here is a copy of
the fstab the install produced:

/dev/sda1        swap             swap        defaults         0   0
/dev/hdd1        /                ext3        defaults         1   1
/dev/sda2        /home            ext3        defaults         1   2
/dev/sda3        /var             ext3        defaults         1   2
/dev/hdd2        /var             ext3        defaults         1   2
/dev/hdd3        /home            ext3        defaults         1   2
/dev/hda1        /boot            ext3        defaults         1   2
/dev/hda2        /root            ext3        defaults         1   2
/dev/hdb1        /home            ext3        defaults         1   2
/dev/cdrom       /mnt/cdrom       iso9660     noauto,owner,ro  0   0
/dev/fd0         /mnt/floppy      auto        noauto,owner     0   0
none             /dev/pts         devpts      gid=5,mode=620   0   0
none             /proc            proc        defaults         0   0

I am concerned something is incorrect.  Here is what happens when
I do a
df -m

Filesystem           1M-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdd1                 6297       925      5047  16% /
/dev/sda2                18494      1600     15939  10% /home
/dev/sda3                 3875      1100      2575  30% /var
/dev/hdd2                 3875      1100      2575  30% /var
/dev/hdd3                18494      1600     15939  10% /home
/dev/hda1                   99         7        87   8% /boot
/dev/hda2                 2902        76      2677   3% /root
/dev/hdb1                18494      1600     15939  10% /home

The /var's & the /homes's are showing up identicle.

Do I need to remove some of the entries in the fstab file, and mount
the drive partitions some otherway??

Any sugestions would be great.

Many Thanks,
