Hey, cos i used to use windows i have alot of my stuff on there (ie. music) and everytime i go into linux i have to go to the konsole and become root and do the mount command (press up for last command   ) is there anyway i can automatically mount this partition (/dev/hda1) to my directory ive been using (/c)

at the bottom of /etc/fstab you could add the line "/dev/hada1 /c vfat defaults 0 0" which should mount the partiton on boot. it also depends on what files system it is and such. also try "man fstab" to read more about it
you know its a bad day when you look more sober then usual

Thanks man that worked like a charm i had to do it twice cos i forgot to do a new line at the end and i got errors pat out at startup, they werent bad as in stopping the system booting up or anything.

Thanks again man youve saved me a lot of time!
