/home/MyDocs is in the fstab but it doesn't mount at boot
how do I get MyDocs back?
Does it mount if you do it manually?

Code:
/bin/mount /home/user/MyDocs
If it does, then

In the tutorial at step 5 it states that I should edit '/etc/event.d/rcS-late' it states that I should insert the line "/bin/mount /home/user/MyDocs" after line 24 which contains "/bin/mount /home || echo "Failed to mount /home partition.". the problem is that line isn't there.
The difference is that maybe that refers to a pre PR1.2 version of the file. Here's an extract from my /etc/event.d/rcS-late file and probably a suitable place to insert that mount command (obviously don't type the <<< & >>>!):

PHP Code:
...
    mount_home && HOME_MOUNTED=1                                            
                                                                            
    # If failed to mount /home and system has been already optified - reboot
    if [ $HOME_MOUNTED -eq 0 ]                                              
    then                                                                    
      if [ -e /var/lib/maemo-optify-firstboot-do-not-clean-home-opt ]; then 
        telinit 6                                                           
      fi                                                                    
    else                                                                    
      [ ! -d /home/opt ] && mkdir /home/opt                                 
      [ ! -d /opt ] && mkdir /opt                                           
      <<</bin/mount /home/user/MyDocs>>>
    fi                                                                      
                                                                            
    if [ $ACT_DEAD -eq 0 ]                                                  
    then                                                                    
      if [ $HOME_MOUNTED -eq 1 ]                                            
      then                                                                  
        if [ -x /usr/sbin/maemo-optify-firstboot.sh ]; then                 
            . /usr/sbin/maemo-optify-firstboot.sh                           
        fi                                                                  
      fi                                                                    
    fi                                                                      
                                                                            
    /bin/mount /opt || echo "Failed to mount(bind) /opt."                   
                                                                            
    if [ $ACT_DEAD -eq 0 ]                                                 
    then                                                                    
      if [ $HOME_MOUNTED -eq 1 ]                                            
      then                                                                  
        if [ -x /usr/sbin/maemo-optify-auto-opt.sh ]; then                  
            . /usr/sbin/maemo-optify-auto-opt.sh                            
        fi                                                                  
      fi                                                                    
                                                                            
      if [ -d /home/preinstalled -a -d /home/user ]                         
      then                                                                  
        rm -rf /home/user                                                   
      fi                                                                    
                                                                            
      if [ ! -d /home/user ]                                                
      then                                                                  
        if [ -d /home/preinstalled ]                                        
        then                                                               
          mv /home/preinstalled /home/user                                  
        else                                                                
          mkdir /home/user                                                  
        fi                                                                  
        cd /etc/skel                                                       
        cp -a . /home/user                                                 
        chown -R user:users /home/user                                     
        sync                                                    
      fi                                                        
    fi

PS. the [ code ] [/ code] tags break formatting! so had to use [ php ] tags.
