mount [i did it with the following, it shouldn't matter?]
mount -t vfat /dev/hda5 /mnt/windows Enter
hda5: bad access: block=0, count=1
end request: I/O error, dev03:05 (hda5). sector 0
FAT: unable to read boot sector
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda5. 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?)

Can someone please explian in plain English what is going on?

1. What is the syntax for find in Debian/Knoppix if different from find / -name [filename] ? If not different, why doesn't it work??, both speculations and more scientific answers appreciated (as long as you make it clear which is which
2. Why can't I mount the dev/hda4 or 5? I have no hda5, why the hda4/E: primary partition may be mounted as hda5 (logic)?
3. Do I really need to mount it in order to unpack/install? - any go around?


Thank you much!

PS: the printing stuff is also about there, it sends a test page to be printed and nothing prints/happens with any of the drivers in the Knoppix 3.2.2 package... What a pitty start. I don't want though to end up going back to Windows forever where I have no clue what the computer is doing, or have no choice but to accept it even if I know.. ;(
