Log in as root and execute this

cd /media
mkdir win_c win_d win_e

Open /etc/fstab file and add these lines at the end of file :

/dev/sda1  /media/win_c  ntfs-3g  defaults,umask=0  0  0
/dev/sda5  /media/win_d  ntfs-3g  defaults,umask=0  0  0
/dev/sda6  /media/win_e  ntfs-3g  defaults,umask=0  0  0

Save file and execute mount -a command or reboot machine.
Check win_c, win_d and win_e folders in /media.

Hey sorry ,for this nooby guy iam just learning linux and i dont know what u mean by those opening fstab or mount -a can u give step by step explanation ,as u see i entered all those in terminal

[devils casper]

Open /etc/fstab file in Gedit or Kate and those lines in /etc/fstab file.
Execute mount -a command after saving file. You must be logged in as root user.

[iyuvabharat]

here is the result

[root@localhost arun]# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0
[root@localhost arun]#

gedit is under /usr/bin(im not on my linux box so sorry if im wrong) so you run it as follows

/usr/bin/gedit /etc/fstab &

when casper said "You must be logged in as root user." he meant you have to switch to root before running the command.

run the command from terminal and gedit will open a GUI for you

Save file and execute mount -a command or reboot machine.
Check win_c, win_d and win_e folders in /media.

the files exist
