Run 'fdisk -l' to see their names. Then mount them to access them:
mkdir /mnt/win_c create a directory to mount to
mount /dev/[name you saw in fdisk] /mnt/win_c mount to the directory

mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom
mounts the device on secondary master IDE to the /mnt/cdrom directory
Add a line to fstab for that too (for regular user access). The 'noauto' option keeps it from mounting on bootup.

Vectrox,

NTFS is not supported by the FC1 kernel. You will have to install the kernel driver at this site: http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/index.html . Hope this helps.
