That'd be to do with which drives to install to, a separate issue than
what's mounted afterwards.

Just add details to fstab and mount the drive, no need to reboot.  This
isn't Windows.

You don't specify those sort of details in the fstab file.  Just which
partition to mount, and where to.

In your case, probably /dev/hda1 and /media/c_drive (read the fstab
file, and manual, to work out the finer details).
