Yeah, look at the fat32 partitions using fdisk....and then add them to the /etc/fstab file.

type "auto" as the parameter...to mount them everytime..your system boots

As far as perl is concerned, there are some man pages available there in Linux...but you can always get a book.

For mounting NTFS partitions..you have to install a small program..that patches up the kernel for NTFS support. Try google.:)

Click to expand...


You can replace the word 'c' with any word you like.

Open a console (terminal), log in as root ('su' command) and type:

Code: 
mkdir /mnt/c

This will create the folder 'c' in the /mnt directory where your fat partition will be mounted.

Code: 
mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/c
