I don' t know what to do maybe someone can help me ?
i think the problem ist not due to the permission messing ,because "mount" has already worked as i crearted for the first time the mount point /mnt/XP.
but now he don't work and I become still the seam ERROR.

thanks
as i said earlier...
the PC basically can only support one expanded partition.... the rest must be extended partitions located on the expanded partition.....sort of virtual drives....
i believe this is your problem,.......
i access NTFS and VFAT as well as ext3 and ext2 partitions....on debian
I had ntfs-3g installed on my Etch when it was the testing distribution, below is a copy of the /etc/fstab line I used that I found in some tutorial, the nls=utf8 is one I've seen in all fstab lines created by installers of the distributions I've installed that set up the ntfs partition. Do not put the "3g" after "ntfs" if you do not have ntfs-3g installed which gives everybody read/write access to ntfs:
Code:
/dev/sda3 /mnt/data ntfs-3g umask=0,nls=utf8 0 0
Also, because it reported a bad super block, it may be necessary to re-boot Windows twice to have Windows clear any filesystem errors it is broadcasting.
EDIT: Also, did you create the directory XP with command:
Code:
mkdir /mnt/XP
You did mention you did, and the errors do not mention it is missing.

In the other person's case, sometimes you do the wrong thing when trying to access ntfs partition from Linux, then the Windows ntfs file system has something in the journal that is meant to tell the operating system (Windows), that the file system may be corrupt and should be checked before it can be mounted. So booting up Windows is necessary to have it check the integrity of the file system.

we can't mount cdr/w without having media in it?
This is perfectly normal, a CD is like another storage device similar to a hard drive, if it's not there, it can't be accessed/mounted.
