Are you sure that the partition is /dev/hda1? That would only work if
your new FAT32 partition was the first partition on your first IDE disk,
which would imply that your main Windows partition was on a SATA disk.
Otherwise, you'd have to look at how your disk is partitioned. Possibly
the easiest way is to run
fdisk -l /dev/hd? /dev/sd?
as root, and look for partitions that are described as something like
"W95 FAT23" in the last column.
Hope this helps,
James.
