Mounting Dos Partition on Bootup

Hi.  You probably got tons of answers but here goes anyway.  The short 
answer is to read the man page on /etc/fstab and make sure to use fat32 for 
Win 9x, otherwise long filenames will not show up.  If you are using 
Slackware, you are prompted for this during installation and it sets things 
up automatically.  The way I did it was to make a directory called /win.  I 
had subdirectories for all my drives under /win, like /win/c, /win/d, 
etc.  I had to fiddle with /etc/fstab a few times before I got it right and 
found the syntax confusing, but it was great once it worked.
