It is saying that u need root permission for mounting...
But after getting as root...

/dev/hdc1 /media/hdc5 vfat noauto,users,exec,umask=000,shortname=winnt,uid=kn oppix,gid=knoppix 0 0

partitions are already mounted in /media folder. check /media folder.

I have seen in the media folder...
The icons of hdc1, hdc5,hdc6,hdc7 and others are coming but it is not opening...It is saying : Feature available with HAL....
What is this.....???????
When i type............ mount /media/hdc1 in Konsole...
Same error is displayed.......

[Sandeep_gcet_cs]

You r on yahoo.... plzzzz Send me your yahoo id...
Chat with u on that..........about it....

[devils casper]

edit /etc/fstab file and replace this line

/dev/hdc1 /media/hdc1 vfat noauto,users,exec,umask=000,shortname=winnt,uid=kn oppix,gid=knoppix 0 0

with this one

/dev/hdc1   /media/hdc1   vfat  defaults, umask=0 0 0

execute this

mount -a

check /media/hdc1 folder.

[Sandeep_gcet_cs]

Done this time...
but let me check it works automatically when i reboot............
