Hi Chris Tou mount a VFAT partion on linux use: mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows Replace /dev/hda1 with appropriate partion and /mnt/windows with the directory where your desire to mount your windows partion. Linux uses a different convention than Windows for describing disk partitions.For example: /dev/hda1 and /dev/hda2 are the first and second partions of the first IDE drive. While /dev/sdb2 is the second partition of the second SCSI drive.
