Praveen,

I managed mounting two of the ntfs drives. But still, I am not able to mount
vfat drives.

The result of fdisk -l is:

isk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x0f7d0f7c

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *           1        3347    26884746    7  HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2            3348       12571    74091780    f  W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/sda3           12572       16395    30716280    b  W95 FAT32
/dev/sda4           16396       19457    24595515    b  W95 FAT32
/dev/sda5            3348        7809    35840511    7  HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda6           12273       12571     2401686   82  Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda7            7810       10970    25390701    b  W95 FAT32
/dev/sda8           10971       12272    10458283+  83  Linux

The lines, I have added to fstab is:

/dev/sda1       /dir0            ntfs-3g defaults,users,uid=sebin
       0       0
 /dev/sda3       /dir1            ntfs-3g defaults,users,uid=sebin
       0       0
 /dev/sda4       /dir2            ntfs-3g defaults,users,uid=sebin
       0       0
 /dev/sda5       /dir3            ntfs-3g defaults,users,uid=sebin
       0       0
 /dev/sda7       /dir4            ntfs-3g defaults,users,uid=sebin
       0       0


Now, the copy of error message

An error occurred while accessing 'Volume (vfat)', the system responded:
NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sda4': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sda4' doesn't have a valid NTFS.
Maybe you selected the wrong device? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/hda, not /dev/hda1)? Or the other way around?


This same error message repeats with

/dev/sda3 and /dev/sda7 as well.


How could I overcome this?
