No hda

[Jim Sims]

Hi Rotariu,
    Ran "mkdir /mnt/windows" as root, and it worked fine.
Then ran the next with this error message.
[root at localhost jim]# mount -t vfat /dev/hda /mnt/windows
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda,
       or too many mounted file systems
Don't know how to get into fdisk on Linux KDE, but am almost certain it
is hda.
