Hello!

First you have to know witch hdd/partition you want to mount, for this use :
su -
fdisk -l


Then you have to create a directory where to mount the preferred partition:
mkdir /mnt/winpartition

To mount for example the first partition of the second hdd use:
mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/winpartition

If you want to have them mounted on each system-start, you have to edit your /etc/fstab file. here 's an example.

PS: don't forget to use exit to get back as normal user

Cheers, Boby

/sbin/modprobe ntfs
add the above line to you rc.modules file
on slackware the file is /etc/rc.d/rc.modules im not sure where it is on redhat or if it has the same name, might be modules.rc
