sorry about the alignment it screwed up. I want to mount hda5 so that when i type in /mnt I'll have my hda5 there as a clickable icon. I can't remember how to get it to mount automatically when mandrake 10 boots up. Also Linux can write to Fat32 right.
doesn't work. It keeps saying it doesn't support fat32. Is this true but it works with my usb pen drive. plus it keeps locking my access to the dir i mounted the partition to.
