[NTLUG:Discuss] Flash Memory Reader on RH8 configuration

I have a USB flash memory card reader that I hooked up and configured last 
week, and I created a mount point directory, and added an entry in /etc/fstab 
 for it and it worked just fine,  UNTIL, I rebooted yesterday and all that 
got wiped out, so had to do it all again.  (Mount point, and fstab entry both 
gone) What causes that?  And how can I stop it?  Or what workaround do I need 
to use?

I see  a file created on what looks to be the date of my first configuration  
of the device, ( /etc/fstab.REVOKE ), and it contains an entry similar to 
what I put in there, not exact but similar.

cat /etc/fstab.REVOKE
/dev/sda1 /mnt/memstick auto default

I don't know who created this file and I dono who did.
Any clues?
