JUST FOUND THE CORRECT WAY!!!
i think (don`t have proof) that the default hal policy`s for volume.ignore where probable set to false by default on Fedora core 5 and 6. and changed to TRUE for fedora core 7. thus making it useless to remove this policy: 99-redhat-storage-policy-fixed-drives.fdi because that also contains the TRUE value in it. a better way to bypass this annoying issue is again to open up that file and edit it.

the exact steps i did:
nano /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/99- redhat-storage-policy-fixed-drives.fdi

than find:
<merge key="volume.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>

change it to:
<merge key="volume.ignore" type="bool">false</merge>

be aware that those policy`s are probably overwritten again once there is a package update containing those policy`s (hal package i think)

so i have all my partitions now :D
thanx alot for the help and i sure hope that this post will help alot of other peoples aswell. i will also post this on the fedoraforum.

that will do. do you (or anyone else) know of a way to change the value of volume.ignore to false as default for everything?
cause i really don`t like it that the users (me in this case) have to do this by hand.. and if i add another hard drive i will have to add another line in that rc.local file.. it`s simply not good

    How about sticking that line in /etc/rc.d/rc.local  ?
