Cant find windows partitions

[Stryder]

I am trying to mount my windows partitions but i get the following error

can't find /dev/hda1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab

here is my fstab

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda4 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hda6 /home ext3 defaults 0 2
/dev/hda5 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdd /media/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0

I was wondering why hda1 through hda3 are not showing up

Thanks for your help

Re: Cant find windows partitions

So what you want. Answer of why they are not showing up or answer of how to mount them ?

if you want to know how to mount them, then post the output of sudo fdisk -l

Partition table entries are not in disk order

Re: Cant find windows partitions

Your Windows partitions won't automatically show up in /etc/fstab--you have to put them in there. Type these commands in (I'm assuming you want FAT32 mounted to a folder called /documents and NTFS mounted to a folder called /xp--you can change these folder names to be whatever you want, but you have to modify the commands accordingly):

sudo mkdir /xp
sudo mkdir /documents
sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab_backup
sudo kwrite /etc/fstab

Once you're in KWrite, add these two lines in:

/dev/hda1 /documents vfat umask=000 0  0
/dev/hda2 /xp ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0

Save the file. Then type

sudo mount -a
