    post the contents of /etc/fstab file and output of fdisk -l command.
    Code:
    less /etc/fstab
    fdisk -l

    what did you try? i didn't post any solution yet. i want to check the contents of /etc/fstab file and output of fdisk -l.
    either login as root and execute those command in terminal
    OR login as normal user and execute 'su -' first.
    post the output of both commands here.

    hi !

    execute this
    Code:
    su -
    mkdir /media/win_c
    mount  -t  vfat /dev/sda1  /media/win_c
    check /media/win_c folder. you can add an entry in /etc/fstab file for automount fat32 partition at boot up. firstly, mount it manually and check if it works.
