Only "unix" partitions {EXT2,EXT3,XFS,...} that large can be mounted.
FC5 can not mount NTFS and FAT32 has a maximum size of 32GB. You could
make at least one 32GB FAT32 partition, and use the rest of the space
for NTFS or make two more FAT32 partitions. The only thing of note, is 
FAT32 has a maximum file size of 4GB, so you can't store a complete 
DVD image without splitting it {see: man split, you can rejoin using :
cat partfile1 partfile2 ... partfileN >fullfile}.
