Kubuntu does not see 2nd drive

[redd]

Hi,

first off I am a noobie and love Kubuntu! Now I have 2 HD's. But one is formatted NTFS. And it seems it can not see it. How do I do this?

Thanks for your help.

Mounting your filesystems
Each partition on your hard drive is also a “filesystem.” To access a filesystem when you are in K/Ubuntu, the filesystem must first be ”mounted”; that is, attached to your operating system directories in some way.
There are two ways to mount a filesystem:

1 Manually mount it (even from a Live CD), a temporary method.
And,
2 Mount the filesystem automatically each time you boot into your operating system. This is a more permanent method. This is done by editing your filesystem table (the file /etc/fstab) in K/Ubuntu, to include an entry for the filesystem you wish to be automatically mounted.

You will find all this explained, step by step, in the following favorite Linux references:
