If fstab refers to vfat and the filesystem is ntfs, this is the reason because the filesystem is not mounted. As Dave says, ntfs filesystem is read-only because write-support is experimental. In order to read the filesystem you can change "vfat" to "auto". If you need read-write access you must recompile your kernel, too. salu2, �scar.
