Well.... the directory im trying to mount it to is /mnt/hdb1 and the hard drive is just used for storage and it doesnt have an OS on it... i have win xp and RH8 on my main drive just partitioned in half... does this make a difference or is the line above what i should still use? (I understand that i would substitute /mnt/hdb1 for /win)

thanks for your help

NAME
gitmount - GNU Interactive Tools - auto-mount script SYNTAX
gitmount device DESCRIPTION
gitmount is a script which allows you to mount any block device without specifying the file system type. You may now insert the floppy in the drive and type ' gitmount fd0' and the first floppy will be mounted in the directory /mnt/fd0. On Linux just press F11 or F12. You don't need to know the file system type anymore. The directories /mnt/fd0 and /mnt/fd1 are created if they don't exist. BUGS
