according to one of the forums I used :-
$fdisk /dev/hda

But it says :- "cannot open".

When I went through the forders and double clicked, it says:-

" NAUTILUS has no installed viewer capable of displaying /dev/hda".

I have Windows using NTFS. I came to know that Red hat can do with Win32. Is there any way we can mount "NTFS files" toooooooooooooo

Check out SAMBA:

Samba - opening windows to a wider world

Quote:
Samba is software that can be run on a platform other than Microsoft Windows, for example, UNIX, Linux, IBM System 390, OpenVMS, and other operating systems. Samba uses the TCP/IP protocol that is installed on the host server. When correctly configured, it allows that host to interact with a Microsoft Windows client or server as if it is a Windows file and print server.

Your are right! The English was a bit hard to understand, but I see now there is only one machine I head to read it a few times
