(15GB Partition with XP, 15GB Partition in Fat32, 10GB split into 3 for Linux. My question is, when im running my 2nd machine in Linux, can my Main machine read the mounted Fat32 partition? I setup Samba to allow all users, but when I open my network I dont see the Fat32 partition.... Thanks for any help..

Hey all, I decide to give linux a try on a second box and im wondering something. Im using Mandrake 9.2 currently and can install programs that the Control Center find ( all of them *.*mdk ). Like i said im extremely new to this and just messing around, but i cant seem to get the Control Center to find my newly downloaded drivers and software. I DL them to my home/name/documents. I try to add it and point it to the directory, but then the pop up comes and says nothing found. Please take it easy on me =) im trying to learn =)
