Question EXT4 partition is not mounted on startup


I have two ext4 partitions: one with Ubuntu 10.10 64-bits and the other just for storing files.

When I log on to Ubuntu, my second partition is not mounted. Shouldn't Ubuntu mount my second partition by default (since it recognizes it as ext4)?

If it should, why is this happening to me?
If it shouldn't, how can I get my second partition to be mounted at startup? Should it be by using the same solution provided by prayag_pjs (first reply) in http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...tartup-837768/? Or is there a better way?

You can find the information about my two partitions here:

Yes the part about editing fstab is the correct answer.
