No no no, don't change the "pts" line, *insert* the /dev/hda3 line before the "pts" line and after the "/dev/hda5" line. Also, did I just make a lucky guess on the partition being "/dev/hda3"? Check the real partition by typing "df /mnt/disk" and see if it really is on "/dev/hda3". If it's not, use whatever it says it is rather than "/dev/hda3".

Doogee:
ok this is just getting freaky,

i did the df thing and it came up with hda5, MY FRICKING LINUX PARTITION. what the fuck is going on here im very confused.

voidmain:
Let me ask you this. Just *how* did you make the new partition? Did you actually create a file system after making the partition? Did you mount it after creating the file system? You can do an:

# fdisk -l /dev/hda

to see all your partitions. Why don't you run that command and copy the output into this thread. We'll figure out what you are doing.
