Okay, drive hdb has a new fat32 partition, and sudo fdisk -l shows hdb1, hdb2 (76GB Free) and hdb3 also: ls /dev/hd* show it. Now, how does one mount it, show that every time I start up the computer, file browser will see 2 Hard Drives 1 hda, and #2 hdb want to mount the hdb2 partition I think? if that correct. I used gparted. Thanks ++ Rich
