    Problem Mounting

    There are three partitions on my disk:
    1. win98
    2. win98
    2. linux ext2
    When the knoppix loads, this is the fstab file:
    # Added by KNOPPIX
    /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 auto noauto,users,exec 0 0
    # Added by KNOPPIX
    /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3 auto noauto,users,exec 0 0
    # Added by KNOPPIX
    /dev/hda4 /mnt/hda4 auto noauto,users,exec 0 0
    But when i try to mount any of the partition, the following message apears:
    "Could no determine filesystem type and none was specified"
    If I change the fstab to this:
    # Added by KNOPPIX
    /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 vfat noauto,users,exec 0 0
    # Added by KNOPPIX
    /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3 vfat noauto,users,exec 0 0
    # Added by KNOPPIX
    /dev/hda4 /mnt/hda4 ext2 noauto,users,exec 0 0
    The message that appears is the following: "Wrong fs or to many things mounted".

    How can i solve this?

    Thanks

    Your root-partition should be mounted to '/', not /mnt/hda4 - or is this just one of your harddrives?
    To find out what is already mounted where and how:
    Code:
    mount
    To get sure about the partitions:
    as root
    Code:
    fdisk /dev/hda
    p
    q
    should print the partitions.
    Perhaps fstab isn't right.
