How to mount other file systems

Right click on the desktop if you are using GNOME desktop. Then open Terminal

1) type "su" , followed by the root password
2) type "fdisk -l"
3) find out the partition to be mounted ( say viz. /dev/hda10 )
4) type " mount -t 'filesystem type' 'partition name' 'mount point'


filesystem type - if u r using fat 32 file system, it will be "vfat". ntfs will not be supported by default.

mount point= its where u need to associate your windows partition (drive) into linux. you can create several mount points ( simply FOLDERS) . for eg, if u want to create one do it as,
/mnt/win , where /mnt would be present by default and you are just making a folder named win where u can put all ur data in
