[oclug] Help a Newbie - access files in another partition?

[Ari Rosberg]

I'm feet wet now -- got Redhat 9 up and running. That was easy :)

I made a dual boot system with Win98SE in a primary DOS partition (FAT32)
and Redhat 9 in a second partition, Linux swap file in a 3rd partition. I
also have a second physical drive with a single DOS(FAT32) partition for
most of my data files. in Linux, I can't "see" either of the DOS partitions.
Is there any way to read/write files from those partitions?

Also, RH9 installed GRUB as default boot loader. Is there any advantage to
GRUB vs LILO? Or is it simply user preference?
