Does the second hard-drive mount OK? Is it formatted as a FAT(32) drive or EXT2/Reiser? Do you have an entry for it in /etc/fstab?

I have a 15GB Maxtor drive (primary drive) and a 40GB Maxtor drive (secondary drive). My drive can bee seen in the linux explorer, but it shows up with a 'default' type of name, and I cannot see any files on it... I'm wondering how to 'install' this drive in Linux so I can access my files already on the drive? My system specs are below. Thanks for any help, and feel free to email me personally if you wish. Thanks! PIII 667Mhz 256mb Ram Creative CDRW 8x4x32 drive Creative 52x Drive 1.44mb floppy drive Sound Blaster Live!
