Question Need help mounting a Windows hard drive in Linux

First, dhamsaic, I tried what you posted for me in the New Uber Box thread...sadly, it didn't work for me.
Ok, I'm running Debian 2.2r4 (Potato) and the lastest 2.2 kernel. I compiled vfat support into the kernel, mount is at the standard Potato level.

Here's my fstab. Sorry about the formatting here.

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
/dev/hda1 /windows vfat defaults,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdb2 / ext2 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hdb1 none swap sw 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /floppy auto defaults,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0
So, when I go to mount /dev/hda1 (or what dhamsaic suggested) I get the following error:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda1, or too many mounted file systems.

Based on my fstab, I doubt I have too many mounted file systems. I doubt I have the wrong fs type or a bad option. I'm willing to check if I have a superblock, but don't believe I do. I believe I checked once before and it was ok. Let me know what the command is and I will check it again.

I hope someone might be able to help me.

Thanks!
