I have a thorny newbie question about CPU's and multiple drives. 

1- Is Mandrake6.0 okay with AMD K6-3 CPU? The hardware list has K, K6-2
and Athalon but no mention of the K6-3, which is an upgraded K6-2. 

My friend and I are learning Linux together. We both have multiple
drives and Windows loaded, but different configurations and this is
where the thorny part begins. We both want to access Windows files, but
can't seem to find the /mnt point. 

John has 3-drives. W95 is on the main drive; LINUX on the 3rd drive, a
secondary master. /mnt/Hdc1 doesn't work. The file size is read but he
gets the same error message I do that asks, "Aren't you trying to mount
a ? partion instead of a ? inside?" 

My system is a little more complicated. My master drive has multiple W98
paritions plus L-M at the end of this drive which is recognized as hda9
and hda11. The second drive is a slave. The MO backup is the Secondary
Master and is NOT recognized by L-M. 

When I watch L-M set up I see the following lines:
1)hda 1,2 <5,6,7,8,9,19,11>
2)hdb 1<5,6> (backup files) 
3)hdc Unknown

I think 1) is the A:, C: plus the <paritions including EXT2>.
I think line 2) is the secondary drive with it's two partitions
And, I hope 3) is the MO drive. 

What is the correct mount for the two machines? I have FAT 16 and FAT32
files in W98. Will vfat allow me to access both files type? 

Thanks for the help and I apologize for the lengthy message.
