The standard install of 9.1 gave me a window called "My Computer"--instantly renamed to "This Computer"-- on which my Windows drive (a separate h/d) appears, and I can get a menu of everything on the drive in GUI format, just like Windows. I sure wish I could get that same output in Linux! But you can't put the Linux drive in "My Computer" and you can only get your user directory from the GUI.

Now I found that I could not reach my win-xp on NTFS..found not in fstab..added with ro as usually. mount -a Surprise..mount: fs type NTFS not supported by kernel.
When installing the 2nd drive with xp was there..but seem not to be detected. suse 9.0 had no problem.
I'm not sure why you did not get this feature in the kernel, but you can install a patch. Here is the page from the SuSE support database.
