It's just that your df -ha command doesn't list any /dev/sda5 partition,
therefore it can't be mounted... Unless you manually mount it every
time you boot. Here's my df listing on my file server. This server has
4 seperate hard drives. The "main" hard drive is 80GB and has 3
partitons, the root (/), the web servers partition (/www) and swap. The
other three have only one partition per drive and use reiserfs. As you
can see each /dev/sd*X* is clearly listed... So why isn't your 40GB
/dev/sda5 listed? Because it's not mounted. You would need a line in
your /etc/fstab file such as:
/dev/sda5 /media/disk-1 ext3 defaults 0 2
Then reboot (or run sudo mount -a)
But, this would result in the files that are in /media/disk-1 to be
"mounted over" by the partition. The "proper" way (The Ubuntu way) is
to make a directory sda5 in /media and mount it there. I don't follow
convention either and mount my disks in a directory /big. Why? Because
I plug in alot of USB keys and USB Hard drives in to copy files to the
server and then rm -rf /media/diskX/filestodelete* and don't want to
take the chance of wiping a terabyte of data off the servers internal
drives.
