    mounting hard drives

    okay, well, if i try to mount ANY of my harddrives besides the home and swap (they can be NTFS, FAT32, or EXT3) in Konqueror, it tells me that i don't have permissions to do so... and if i try to mmount them in the terminal (e.g. mount /dev/hda12/), it tells me "mount: can't find /dev/hda12 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab"

    So... can anyone help me out with this

        william@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -a
        mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc1,
        missing codepage or other error
        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
        dmesg | tail or so

        Please help

          Can you post the output of these two commands?
          Code:
          sudo fdisk -l
cat /etc/fstab

                  It should. 'auto' is the option to auto-mount during boot, but it's the default, so if there's not a 'noauto' option, it will mount automatically.
