Reply: (edit)See tips at betips.net.
Your bios (not beos) must see the devices.
When you right click on the desktop you have the option to mount the disk. The disk should appear either in disks folder or on the desktop. Then double click or right z-snake your way down the tree.

Reply: (edit)Thanks Buddy
But the problem is not that the bios recognises it. It works just fine in windows
It is shown in the menu when i click on the desktop. it shows me in the menu floppy drive and cd but when i click on it to mount it . it gives me an eroor.
I Hope beos supports Fat(partitions)
I am sure it does but just in case it doesnt in which type should i format it so that it works in both windows and linux and Beos
Thanks
