Yes. I have formatted the partition in windows and than only I am trying
to access the partition.
Yesterday night I tried again to do something different.
/dev/hda6 - fat32 was giving problem
/dev/hda7 - was linux native partition ( nothing is installed there ).
So I changed /dev/hda6 as linux partition and formatted it with ext2 file
system. After that it mounts properly without any problems. Then I changed
/dev/hda7 to fat32 and formatted it in windows. But once I came back to
windows to mount this /dev/hda7 partition, it gave me the same error,
wrong fs etc etc. which I was getting for /dev/hda6. Why only fat32
partition gives me error ? I fail to understand this.
This is the first time I have created windows partitions using linux
fdisk, since I wanted to create 3 primary partitions ( windos fdisk is
useless here ). But the above problem has cropped up.
Warm Regards
