Hi Rob, Assuming your windows partition is hdd1: 1. Create a directory called windows in /mnt. You can call the directory as you like 2. Mount the windows partition: mount -t vfat /dev/hdd1 /mnt/windows You have to do this as a root. -=Hanny --- Rob Yale <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Title: Message Hi folks,   I have a FAT partition on hda which I would like to be able to access from my Linux install on hdb.  How do I create a new mount point?  Do I simply make a new entry in the fstab file?  If so, what would that entry be?   Thanks,   Rob Yale
