Also, in fstab you may see the option "noauto" on the lines for your windows partitions. This means they will not auto mount (look under "man fstab" or "man mount" or try typing "apropos fstab" for more information). Anyway, if fstab as these set as "noauto" then you must mount them manually as root. Assuming they are correctly defined in fstab, all you need do is "mount /mnt/hda1" or hdb as req'd.

Hope this helps,
