E.g., # mount -t vfat /dev/hda5 /mnt/d Once the above command is run, you can $ cd /mnt/d $ ls and hopefully you'll see your files. -- Yawar - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
