>From the looks of the partition table, your current setup has
/dev/hda1 as /boot, /dev/hda2 as / (root), and /dev/hda3 as
swap, with /dev/hda5 unused.

>From the command line use "swapon -s" to verify that /dev/hda3
is being used for swap. Use "mount" or "df -kl" to verify that
/ and /boot are /dev/hda2 and /dev/hda1 respectively; and that
/dev/hda4 and /dev/hda5 are not in use.

To mount /stor, first create /stor with "mkdir /stor" and then
"mount /dev/hda5 /stor". To make it permanent, add the following
line to /etc/fstab:

	/dev/hda5  /stor  ext3  defaults  0  2

If /stor is old enough, you might have to replace "ext3" with
"ext2".
