Dear ramjimh

try fdisk -l /dev/hda find out fat32 partitaion, one more thing do not mount under /root mount somewhere else i.e /tmp .This is might help.

Use mount command as follows:

Create mount dir:

Code:

mkdir -p /mnt/c

Mount partition:

Code:

mount -t vfat /dev/hdX /mnt/c

Now goto directory /mnt/c

Code:

cd /mnt/c

Replace /dev/hdX with actual your partition, to find out partition list type command:

Code:

fdisk -l
