Hello,

How come, after booting at times, the kernel says that /dev/hda2 has
mounted thirty-seven times without check?  It then forces a check and I
have to wait like four minutes for it.  Is there any way to disable
this?

Go into /etc/fstab, and look for the entry. There will be a 2 in there 
somewhere I think.

Where may I find information about the different groups in Linux, such
as wheel?  Also, how may I access the CD-ROM, USB storage drive, and
floppy drive in a user account?  I am trying to be a good noob and avoid
root as much as possible :)

Usb drives qwill be something like /dev/sda I think, floppies are /dev/fd0.

You'll need to mount them. do a "man mount" for usage, you might need some 
help off the list, the manual's for a level 8 command (quite advanced), I 
had to get help the first 50 times I used it. :)

Thanks,
Robby
