Hi, welcome to LQ!

And yes, Linux has no concept of drive letters.

What does
mount
and
fdisk say?

If hda1 or hda2 are part of mounts output then you'll
see the file-system type for it too.

You don't appear to have any NTFS partitions on that disk. Are you sure you didn't delete it?

Do you really mean "install"? If so, then obviously you'll have a Windows partition if you install Windows..
