Hi

If you have four partitions on your hard disk, it doesn't mean that you have
four hard disks or four IDE peripherals. If the other partitions are windows
partitions you can mount them in linux by making their entries in the files
'/etc/fstab' or /etc/mtab'. Or you can specify the mount points for them
while installing linux, using DiskDruid or Fdisk.

Hope it helps....
