    Hard drives not detected

    Hi. I'm using a LiveCD of Ubuntu and it's been working well so far. There's a problem though, If I look into My Computer , I see four drives: "55.2 GB Media", my DVD drive, "New Volume", and "Filesystem".

    When I access "Filesystem" it works. However, I can't access the other drives, it gives me a "Cannot mount Volume" error. Where did my C: and D: drives go? However in the Install Ubuntu screen it detects my hard drives. What gives?

    It also recognizes all my drives except for "Filesystem" and my DVD drives as external ones.

    Can you post the output of
    Code:
    sudo fdisk -l
    mount
    This will show partition structure and what devices are mounted, and where they are mounted to.
