Partition mounting problem.

I have three problems in my partition table.
First: Disk&Filesystems, #2 partition 1.0kb shows (/media/floppy0) as the
mount point. I don't know how it got in that location. When I partitioned
the drive, it was located in the list with the Burner and the Optical Disk at
the bottom of the Disk and Filesystems. What was there originally was a
1.0kb partition that the computer created, contents of which I do not know.
Under Device I was listed as /dev/sda2.
Second: I have a partition that contains ntfs. I do not have any Windows
products on my computer, that I know of. I did not create an ntfs partition,
yet it is there. sda8
Third I have a permissions problem with sdb5.
The following is my fstab:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# The following is an example. Please see fstab(5) for further details.
# Please refer to mount(1) for a complete description of mount options.
#
# Format:
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
#
# dump(8) uses the <dump> field to determine which file systems needOnOn
# to be dumped. fsck(8) uses the <pass> column to determine which file
# systems need to be checked--the root file system should have a 1 in
# this field, other file systems a 2, and any file systems that should
# not be checked (such as MS-DOS or NFS file systems) a 0.
#
# The `sw' option indicates that the swap partition is to be activated
# with `swapon -a'.
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0
# The `bsdgroups' option indicates that the file system is to be mounted
# with BSD semantics (files inherit the group ownership of the directoryOn
# in which they live). `ro' can be used to mount a file system read-only.O n

I would include a screen print of my Disk&Filesystems, but it is too large
250kb.
Can you see any of my problem in fstab, I do not understand the data yet?
What in the way of information can I provide that would help you help me?
Thanks,
Steven
