Partitioning was a little bit confusing even though only for a moment.
Anyways I had all the data on a fat32 partition from the windows
machine.
The remaining 2 ntfs paritions were deleted. And 4 new partitions
created which were alloted to home, root, boot, swap. Had I created 6
partitions instead of 4 from the above free space, it would have
created partitions for usr and var too. 

So I believe first you make the partitions and then allot it in the
next step. 

Ofcourse though it detected by fat32 partition it was not able to mount
it itself. Meaning, simply clicking on it did not work. 
So I had to mount it using mount -t vfat /hda5 /home/user/win_e
