Strange thing has happened

I have 3 harddisks , one 8.04 on wich i boot, and older disk with 7.04 and one hdd with winxp

I was able to view/mount all of them

Re: Strange

Maybe

K > System Settings > Advanced > Disk & Filesystems,
Administrator Mode
Right-click on the partition you see that needs fixing
Edit
and go from there;

even at that, you might still have to do:
Konqueror, Storage Media, Right-click, Mount
now and then ...

Re: Strange

Linux gets its clues about hard drives from the BIOS of your system. Some combinations require that you change the "mode" on the SATA and/or IDE bus, in order for a drive to be seen by Linux.

In the CLI, you can issue

fdisk -lu

and

blkid

and see the drives and their partitions, if they are in fact picked up by the OS. You can also install the

lshw

package and then run that as a command to see more details about the make and model of them.

If they truly aren't seen by the Linux OS, then you'll have to go into BIOS, and change the "mode" on the applicable bus. On my SATA bus, I have to set it to AHCI mode, for example, for those drives to be seen. There are also modes such as "legacy PATA" available.

Hope this helps ...
