I duel boot w/win98
After reading this I set it up, and it worked :-) Thanks very much!
/dev/hdb1 /mnt/hd/ vfat auto,users,umask=0 0 0
I opened /mnt and dragged the hd folder to the desktop and told it to
link to it. Renamed the folder win98-hd on the desktop, I can read and
write to it. I'm using KDE. Thanks for the info/help!
