Re: Adding Drives
I think I see the confusion.
Your filesystem is not hda.
Your filesystem *includes* hda.
Now it includes hdc too.
This is different than under Windows, where every drive has
its root directory and all the subfolders appear under it,
and each drive's filesystem is independent from the others.
Hope that clears it up a little.

Ok, I made a dir on hda3 called /data
I was then able to mount hdc1.
This has me confused?
why I need a mount point on hda to get to hdc?
Is there a place I can get more info on mount points, etc
etc?
