[Lancaster] Technical question

If you've been following the list, you'll know I'm giving MEPIS a test
run at the moment. I have to say, I'm impressed with the speed. Every
other Linux I've tried which uses KDE has been rather sluggish. This
one is faster than Ubuntu using GNOME when it comes to opening
windows, menus etc.

Anyway, what I wanted to know is this. I've got MEPIS on partition
hda3, and Ubuntu on hda1. If I do "mount /mnt/hda1" I can access the
Ubuntu partition, but I have to do it manually. What I want to know
is:

1) How can I get hda1 to mount automatically in MEPIS
2) Can I connect the home directory of hda1 to the filesystem in the
home directory of MEPIS, so I don't have to wander quite so far to get
to my documents?

I'm pretty sure it's possible, but I just don't know how! :-)
