When my PC boots up, I get the error:

May  2 20:25:54 starbug mount:        or too many mounted file systems
Here's the entry created by Mandrake:
/dev/hdb1 /boot ext2 notail 1 2
And the other question: Why are all my Windows partitions on my other
drive mounted as accessible only to ROOT? I chmodded the mount points
to 550 but when you mount them, they change back to 500. So I can't
access the files.
Any clues?
Thanks!
The permission on a mount directory have nothiong to do with the 
pêrmission on the mount point . They are determined by options in 
/etc/fsab. If you want everyone to be able to read your windows 
partition; use umask=000. See man mount to have more information.
