mounting vfat hard drive on fc1

[AlbedoPiazzolla]

vfat hard drive is secondary master. After plugging it in, I turned on the comp and bios detected the new hard drive. When I go to mount it (mount -t vfat /dev/hdc1 /mnt/win1), it tells me /dev/hdc1 is not a valid block device. What is wrong and how do I fix it?

try hdb1 instead, as usually it goes First Primary Disk- HDA Second Primary Disk- HDB and so on. That should do it.
