I always get worried when mounting the music partition rw takes several minutes

I think it was Mark Lord that pointed out that one can add the nocheck option to the mount command in the rwm script to speed it up.

You can change the /bin/rwm script to contain the following (the red stuff is the change).
==============
#!/bin/sh
mount -n -o remount,rw,nocheck /drive0
[ -e /proc/ide/hdb ] && mount -n -o remount,rw,nocheck /drive1
==============

If you edit the file on a non-Unix machine, use an editor that can save the file with unix style linefeeds. After (re)uploading, make sure the file is executable, default permissions seem to be 0755 (rwxr-xr-x)
