Before I formatted my harddisk (new mobo + processor) I could mount my windows partition by adding /dev/hda1 /mnt/win vfat noauto,owner,rw, 0 0. to my /etc/fstab.
I added this to my fstab again but now it does not seem to work.
When I trie mount using the command
mount /mnt/win
it gives me the following message:

mount: mount point /mnt/win does not exist.

That is as root user, when I trie this as non su I get the following:

mount: only root can mount /dev/hda1 on mnt/win

I use redhat 7.3 and the only difference between this installment and the previous is that I now use "grubble" is that the correct name? instead of Lilo as bootmanager.
There are some hardware changes, new mobo elite k7s5a and processor xp2000+.
What am I missing or doing wrong?

Thnx in advance Dave.

b4 trieng anything are U sure that U have the directory /mnt/win ?
GRUB(le) is as good as LILO.

Another thing read man fstab,mount,grub, in the order given.

try mounting your windows drive by doing mount -t vfat /dev/hdX (where 'X' is your hard drive number) and /mnt/win

so it will look like this in command (for me)
if it works then you are probably putting something wrong in your fstab, if it doesn't work post out the output here...

i'd really recommend reading a little more into the error messages...
this means that the place where you want to mount the drive does not exist... create that directory. The error messages in linux are typically VERY logical and self explanatory

make sure you have a mount point in your /mnt/ directory as you can see mine is /mnt/windows

ahahaha Chris, you beat me to it

Why dont U use nauto try 'auto' won't make much difference except You won't have to mount mannually and windows will be available to non root users too.

Thnx, mkdir /mnt/win did the trick........

I should read the error messages before I start posting.

But still thanks, figuring this out myself would have taken me way longer...
