I am not sure what you mean. Do you mean you cannot load the systems
in other partitions or do you mean you can not use sudo mount -t ext3
/dev/hda2 /mnt?

It seems you have a Grub problem but not sure.

Hi HB,

I am writing not as an expert on this subject, but I have had a lot of
luck using the program "pysdm" = Python Storage Device Manager. It
has helped me add a second hard drive by giving me a graphical way to
edit the fstab. It is not installed by default. To try it, you would
have to execute "sudo apt-get install pysdm" in a terminal. Its final
location should be in your path, so you should be able to type "pysdm"
in a terminal to start it up.

Also, the graphical program "gparted" has been a lot of help dealing
with partitions.

cheers,
