mounting drives

I finally got Ubuntu Linux running last night, but it requires that I mount all of my sd and hd devices (excluding hda and hdb, which are my dvdrws)

Whenever I try this, though, it keeps spitting out an error that the filesystem is wrong.. I've tried vfat and ntfs but I still lose.

Any suggestions?

(and no, i'm not going to type rm -rf / into the terminal, thanks)

that worked :D

now i just need to make it accessible w/o root, then add it to /etc/fstab
