So try e.g. this:
Code:
mkdir /hda1
mount /dev/hda1 /hda1
And then browse from /hda1 to see if the mounting was successfull.
If this doesn't work, please post any errors you get.
Sweet..... Worked sorta.... I can browse hda1 in the root console, but couldn't use the broswer. Would I have to be running as root user in the GUI. sry noob in this stuff.
Bttw I'm running Knoppix Live CD and I only set the root pass.

Thanks I feel S-M-R-T!
