Hi all,

I'm a newbie to linux so forgive me if my question is too basic.

I tried to mount a partition from my hard drive but this error occur:
# mount -t vfat /dev/hdb2 /windoze
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb2,
or too many mounted file systems
(aren't you trying to mount an extended partition,
instead of some logical partition inside?)

can anybody help me?
 
What does
Code:
/sbin/fdisk -l /dev/hdb
say about your partitions?
