With RH 5.0 you can't mount FAT32 partitions, however DISKDRUID
does recognize them. You should get a newer kernel (2.0.34 (?) or use
a method which I use with the help of the m-tools utils. However I use
this method for copying only! You will not be able to mount the disk.
First vi the /etc/mtools.conf to configure the /dev/hda1 as drive c:.
Now you can simply do a mdir c: or a mcopy from your FAT32 partition.
For mounting a FAT32 partition, get RH 5.1or download a newer kernel
but correct me if I am wrong.
