Nice idea but unforunatly that is not going to work I am afriad.  /dev/hda1 is not mounted at boot time but is user mountable.
Why not try adding your mount command for hda1 at the beginning of the bootlocal.sh then trying Cappy's suggestions.

Brilliant!  That was exactly what I was looking for.  I come from the redhat world and was wondering where the rc.local equivilent was. I have to admit my redhat expeirance made me assume that it would be under /etc rather than /opt but for DSL it makes sense!

Also I found that if you add the mount point above the #Added by KNOPPIX line in the fstab it doesn't get removed so I was able to mount /dev/hda1 as /home.

I will write up a full procedure for what I did and add it under the FAQ for CD-less installs.

Thanks Cappy, roberts, and cbagger01for your help :-)
