Well, your mail is here...;-)
One thing you should do is to apply the original message so that those helping
you can fresh up their memory, some of us correspond to more than one list
making hundreds of e-mail exchanging every day.
Luckily I found  the one I sent to you in my outbox.

This was what I wrote earlyer:
------------------------------
In /etc/fstab it should look like this:

/dev/hda1        /windows        vfat    noauto,user   0   0 

this should do it, if it doesn't then let me know.
------------------------------
Now I realize that I was a bit to fast there, it should have been:

In /etc/fstab it *could* look like this:

/dev/hda1        /windows        vfat    noauto,user   0   0

This is a direct copy from my fstab file in Storm:
 
/dev/hda1       /windows       vfat    users,noauto,exec          0      0

This means: the mount point for /dev/hda1 (which is *my* Windows partition, I
actually don't know if yours got the same address) is the directory */windows*,
if you write that in the fstab file then you have to have a directory in / that
has this exact name.
