Cannot read partitions

On a recently converted windows machine, I had three NTFS partitions in /media:
/media/hda1
/media/hdb1
/media/hdb5
After installing Ubuntu, the user could read each of these partitions
(but could not write to them). /media/hda1 was the old Windows root
filesystem, with no files worth saving, so today I converted it into
jfs with gparted. Now, I can not read /media/hdb1 and /media/hdb5.
When we click those folders in Konqueror (she prefers KDE) we get a
message that the user has no permissions. However, even after running
"sudo chmod lirondah /media/hdb1" and "sudo chgrp lirondah
/media/hdb1" running "ls -l" shows that the files still belong to
root.
Also, running "sudo mount -a" shows this error:
mount: special device /dev/disk/by-uuid/04DCED11DCECFE34 does not exist
That is the UUID for /dev/hda1, the partition that I changed to jfs.
What must I chagne to be able to mount this jfs partition? Here is
fstab:
lirondah at ubuntu:~$ cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

Thanks in advance.
