FAT32 Help!!!

[shell32]

i have an FC4 installed and i have another hardisc which i want to mount, its FAT32... i will actually use it on samba. well im a newb.
someone told me how to mount... i did all the steps,,, i dont know where can i find the FAT32 hardisc now! i can remember my last command as a root was "mount -a" then is says Permission denied.

Can you help me with more brief explanations... is guess i need some reading...
Oh i make some folder on /mnt which i named "test" then i started the mount -a. Phew! well how can i redo it??? maybe i need read and write permission for all users. :confused:

First find out what the hard disk is called by typing su to go to root, then /sbin/fdisk -l.

Once you have the name, hda, hdb, etc, you need to create a mount point - you can create a directory wherever you like, but /mnt/test is as good as any.

Next, still as root, type gedit /etc/fstab and add something like this to the bottom of the file:

/dev/hdb /mnt/test vfat rw,users,umask=000 0 0

Change hdb to whatever the disk is actually called. Save the file and close it. Then, as root, type mount -a.

That should be it, the disk should mount and appear in the places menu.
