The file which controls which filesystems are mounted at boot is /etc/fstab -- man fstab will tell you details about the format. Basically, you need to add a line to your fstab corresponding for each filesystem you want to mount. You can mount a filesystem without an fstab entry, but it will not be re-mounted when the machine is rebooted.
