Hi,
Please, login as root and run the comand "mount", then show us the standar output AND the /etc/fstab file. Tell us which is the file systems that you have used on new disk partitions (VFAT, EXT2/3, NTFS, UFS, REISERFS, etc).

 It seems tha a mistake was made in last line.

Instead "default" should be "defaults". But after change a error message "permission denied" appear in Konqueror window. 



And mount still does not work
"89-125-103-244:/home/andrius# mount /dev/hdc1
mount: mount point /mnt/hdc1 does not exist"
