With RedHat you must first create mount points for each partition you want to mount.
For example for your Windows C drive:
mkdir /mnt/winc

To manually mount the C drive:
mount -tvfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/winc

To manually unmount the C drive:
umount /mnt/winc

You must add an rpm to enable NTFS support. See my post on this thread for more info: http://www.computing.net/linux/wwwboard/forum/20070.html

hi,
In addition to response one, here is something more to help you since you have two harddrives.
the first harddrive is referred as hda, hence partitions in that hdd can be mounted hda1,hda2 and so, where as the 2nd harddrive is to be reffered as hdb, so partittions will be hdb1,hdb2 and soo.
