MOUNTING PROBLEM

["Sunil Varghese" <varghesesunil@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everybody,

I gave the following command to mount my win partition on linux

root@sunil$:     mkdir /mnt/win
root@sunil$:     mount /dev/hda1  /mnt/win -t vfat

But it gave the following error and failed to mount .

mount :  /dev/hda1 has wrong major or minor number .

I also checked whether it is correct partition or not using

root@sunil$  fdisk /dev/hda
                        p  [for printing the partition names ]


What could be wrong  ?

Note :  I did delete contents of  /etc/sysconfig/hwconf  to refresh my
hardware detection , and it did detect [that was for i810 mb problem ] but I
don't think that has to anything to do with mounting.

Expecting an early reply

Thanks in advance
