You may try this way.
1. Create the mount point
Code:
% mkdir /c
% chmod a+rw /c
2. Mount the drive manually to make sure it works.
Code:
% mount /dev/hda1 /c -t vfat
3. If that worked, you can make it easier or automatic to mount by adding the following line to /etc/fstab:
Code:
/dev/hda1 /c vfat noauto,user 0 2
4. With step 3 completed, you can now use the following command to mount the Win98 partition (this is how my machine is set up):
5. If you want to have /c mounted automatically at boot time, change the "noauto" in step 3 to "auto".
I have obtained the above from others. I am giving you the same as it is working fine for me and tested with several friends of mine. You may try it.
