Hi

I'm having probs. with this pl. help

You have to be root to do this. First check if the windows partition is registered in the file /etc/fstab, at the consol ($) you can do this (I always use emacs to edit files, you might prefer another one like pico or vi):

$>emacs /etc/fstab

Look for a line similar to this:

/dev/hda1 /windows vfat noauto,user 0 0

The line was'nt there I've added it exactly as mentioned.

Right, you need to change that line: o change the /dev/hda1 to /dev/hdb1 o change the noauto to auto (not necessary, but probably best for you) You might also want to make the spacing more like that which is already in the file.

next i did mkdir /windows

Good.

I then made mount point directory in root as follows:

amit: # ~ mount /dev/hda1/windows

OK, to mount the directory all you have to do is type: mount /windows

got message

mount: fs type noauto,user not supported by kernel.
