--Post results of ' fdisk -l ' as root (open up konsole in kde, ' sudo bash ', then the command, cut+paste, Ctrl-D to logout of root.) FYI, if the partition is not FORMATTED with a filesystem, it will not mount. Are you sure these partitions are formatted?

--In any case, if the partition is/was formatted but you can't mount it it Windoze or Linux, it may be corrupted. If the data is mission-critical, look into a data-recovery specialist in your area.

The error message I recieve (verbatim for one device):
Could not mount device.

The reported error was:

Mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad
superblock on /dev/hdb1,

or too many mounted file systems

<end of error>

As far as too many file systems (don't know what that means exactly) but I was able to mount other drives fine.

After searching around and reading a few posts (all that seemed apply in my searches) I found no fixes. I am at an utter loss and am in need for this to work as I have a seperate computer problem that I am trying to mount this drive to fix.
