i'm running fromknopix right now, and i see my hda1, but when i create a new disc device, and point it at /dev/hdb, i am told it could not auto-detect the file system and none was specified. i don't see where to add this info in the properties of the device. /dev/hdb is fat 32; /dev/hda1 is ntfs, btw. any help?

well, i learned to login as root; and i learned to make a directory- but when i try to mount the device, this is wht i get:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb2,
or too many mounted file systems
(could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)
any advice?
Properties of your devices are listed in /etc/fstab.
Your fstab should have a line like this in order to mount hdb1:
/dev/hdb1 /mnt/hdb1 vfat auto,users,exec,umask=000,quiet 0 0
