    Dear my friend,

    open and edit the /etc/fstab

    /dev/hda1 /mnt/cdrive vfat defaults 0 0 0


    use the same line for other partition.

    you don't need to use mount command at after restart linux


    Thanks

    You should not mount partition at /mnt/cddrive folder.
    Create a new folder for Windows Partition in /media.
    Code:
    su -
    mkdir /media/hda1
    Add this code in /etc/fstab file :
    Code:
    /dev/hda1   /media/hda1    vfat   defaults,umask=0   0  0
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
