what's mean the lines on above, and how can I correct that.

very thx for any help.

did you make a directory to mount hda5?

become root (su)
cd /mnt/
mkdir winfat32
ls
winfat32 you list if created it.

now try to mount: mount /dev/hda5 /mnt/winfat32

Thanks!
The dir /mnt/hda5 is exist, and when I ran command mounting, my id is root already.

this kernel-2.6.8 has problems mount windows partitions, i dont use because of that and other reason like k3b.

see if you can use your previous kernel to mount them

you can also edit fstab and auto mount too:

/dev/hda5 /mnt/hda5 vfat users,rw,owner,umask=000 0 0 see if by adding line to fstab helps.

btw, you named dir hda5?

[jiawj]

Thanks again!

I had to go back
In my dir /mnt, I named my sub dirs hdax as my partitions, :o
