mounting a partition for music w/ RH 8.0
DJ:
Here is my current setup
Primary Master - 40GB HD (w/ 10GB repartitioned for my music)
Primary Slave - 2GB (Don't ask me the drive says its 4GB :confused: )for RH 8.0
Secondary Master - DVD ROM
Secondary Slave - CD-RW Drive
Now, I would like to be able to mount my 10G partition in RH so that I can have music to listen to while learning but I am not sure how to check and see which drives/partitions Linux recognizes as hda1, hdb1, etc. Is there a command I can use to verify this? If its any help Windows recognizes my drives partitions as follows
a: - floppy
C: - 30GB NTFS Windows partition
D: - DVD ROM
E: - Lite On CD-RW
F: - 10GB FAT32 Partition (which is on the same HD as the NTFS partition)
I would just like some music to keep me company while I am learning. Thanks
Dj

I looked there first and found that. I see how to do it but I was wondering how to tell what the partition/dir is labeled in Linux. Also, all my music in /music but I cannot get it to play using Media Player, I guess my real problem is that I can see the files in Linux but I cannot play them

The version of xmms that shipped wih RH8.0 does not have mp3 capability for legal reasons. You need to get the required pacakes from www.xmms.org it is the 1st or 2nd item from the top.

Also fdisk -l should give you enough information about your partitions do determine which one is the one you need to mount.
