try leaving off the -t ext2 option. also make sure that you have created the proper directory:

i.e.

mkdir /mnt/hdc9

before trying to mount to it. F.Y.I. it has been my experience that one can only have a maximum of 8 partitions on a single hard drive and at most 4 primary partitions. why in the world would someone need 3 hard drives and at least one is broken into 9 partitions?????? either you have weird storage needs or there is some pointless partitioning goin' on! write back and let me know if it gets fixed or you need more options
